FW: Benefit of Checklist

Hi Flavio,I think you're on the right track here, having the role equally accountable to report on metrics and more detail provided in the required metric, to help the person truly understand what is required here.The attention to "not meeting metrics" should be enough to encourage better perform...

Letting another role represent a tension during Governance Meeting

09/27/2016

Hi there - I was asked to bring a tension on behalf of someone one time to a meeting and it completely backfired.

I serve a role in our organization that helps facilitate through these situations. I bu...

Doubt about a potential case of NVGO

07/26/2017

One might consider benefit of accountability being perhaps sole accountability in a new role within anchor circle, as apposed to needing to be "part of" an existing role. The reason why I say this is that it might be worthy to protect accountabilities naturally flowing from the purpose, for clari...
