Holding oneself accountable to one’s values and purposes is the key to maintaining integrity. If you say one thing and do another in your life and practice you have little chance of generating trust with others.
The extension of this is that when you take your values and purposes to an endeavour (your practice) you have the opportunity to leverage yourself through others (your team and practice members).
The person responsible for the success of your practice (whether you are an owner or associate) is you. Nobody else can make your practice soar.
The key to getting your integrity to the public and getting traction in your business lies in you holding your team and practice members responsible to the agreements that they make.
Holding others accountable can be an uncomfortable process as it requires that you expose yourself to others rejection of you. The central theme of this process is that you will hold people to the agreements that they have made with you so make sure that the agreements that you make are clear, clean and understood by all parties.
When this is done and revisited on a regular basis you will enjoy the satisfaction of seeing your practice soar to higher levels of productivity, results and returns.
