"The most important quality I look for in a player is accountability. You've got to be accountable for who you are. It's too easy to blame things on someone else."
– Lenny Wilkens (HOF NBA Coach)
ACCOUNTABILITY
The unwillingness to quit, the determination to find a solution, or the desire to complete a task. Get it done!
The effort to get the project or task done when the first, second and third tries all go unsuccessful. Think responsibility 2.0!
The champion holds himself accountable for the performance of the group and finds a way to push everyone towards success and accomplishment. Responsibilities can and will change, accountability does not!
