hello aspirant,

i hope that you are doing absolutely great.

With reference to your above mentioned query, I would like to tell you the true meaning of accountability.

Accountability is an acceptance of responsibility for honest and ethical conduct towards others . In a wider sense, accountability implies a willingness to be judged on performance.

A great example of accountability is when you are focused on achieving your goals and tasks . If you're able to limit distractions and pressures, you're successful in achieving your goals efficiently. Moreover, when your team sees this, you're setting a good example for them. You build a strong work ethic for your team.

There are 4 types of accountability :

accountability for power, performance, justice, and finance . These four types of account- ability can increase trust, democratic behavior, collective responsibility, and the effectiveness of management.

I  hope that this will help in better understanding.
