Accountability
Do what you say you'll do, when you say you'll do it. Every time.
Example
Each week, I will spend 15 minutes before each client meeting reviewing their file so that I walk in knowing their world better than they expect.
Example
Each week, I will give one clear recommendation in every client meeting so that they leave knowing exactly what to do next.
Example
Each week, I will spend 30 minutes learning one new thing in my area so that my advice stays ahead of the profession.
Example
Each week, I will ask one question before offering advice in every client call so that I understand what they actually need first.
Example
Each week, I will check in with one colleague outside my team so that we are building connections beyond our own division.
Example
Each week, I will loop in one colleague from another division on a client matter so that the client gets our best combined thinking.
Example
Each week, I will act on one decision I have been sitting on so that nothing stalls waiting for me to move.
Example
Each week, I will follow up one open client item before they have to chase me so that they know it is handled.
Example
Each week, I will close out one task I committed to last week so that nothing sits half done on my desk.
