This excellently presented and structured period of instruction has an applicability to numerous types, formats, structures and compilations of workforces.It provides clear insight into how accountability or lack of accountability is currently affecting the organization and its behavior. The student can use this to determine what the organization may be doing correctly and is strong at and how accountability is enhancing this, or it can be used to show how improvement to organizational behavior can be achieved with accountability.

It is a very interesting way of allowing the student to comprehend and define accountability in the students own words and inputs, thus making the definition personal and applicable to the environment, and not just a “canned” quote from an “expert”. Great job!
