Responsibility vs. Accountability vs. OWNERSHIP | Team Performance | HR and Business Leaders

Bad leaders lay out responsibilities and tell people what to do because they can.
Good leaders set an example, keep others accountable, and accept feedback.
Great leaders create an environment where teams WANT to take OWNERSHIP of their roles.
Your people should be doing their best work for the benefit of THEIR careers AND YOUR organization.

    Thanks for the explanation. I am a native Spanish speaker and the concept of Accountability does not exist in Spanish. Now I understand better.

    Glad to hear it. If more leaders demonstrated to their teams what it means to take ownership of roles, those companies would be much stronger during recessions.

    These things are all just synonyms. Why are you trying to making it complicated? If you're responsible for something, then you're on the hook for it. If you're accountable for it, then you're on the hook for it. If you have ownership of something, then you're on the hook for it. I have a house, therefore I'm responsible for maintaining it. I'm accountable for maintaining it. I have ownership of it, so I'm the one that must maintain it. Nobody else. What is difficult about that? Using these terms, if there is not accountability (that is, consequences), then there is no responsibility in the first place. And don't pretend that there is ANY ownership below the actual company owners. Nothing an employee creates or builds, etc. is theirs - it belongs to the company. This is nothing but fluff talk designed to squeeze as much work as possible out of employees for as little cost as possible. Period.

    Exactly my thoughts. I really despise the word ownership at work especially when I'm just a salaried employee. The fuck should I work like I own the place when you can fire me at any second? Fuck outta here.

    Wrong. They are not synonyms. There are important distinctions among all of these terms. The fact that you are clearly disgruntled at work and lumped them together doesn't change that.

    But if you hire someone to work on your house, they don't own the house but they are still accountable to do the job you hired them for. Some people will go above and beyond and some people you have to watch closely and make sure they are holding up their end of the bargain. What if you hire someone to do "yard work" and never tell them what that means. Will they read your mind and do exactly what you want?

    Give them stock and watch them take ownership. People don't treat the property they're renting the same way they would if they owned it.

    what if you are made accountable for somebody else actions/decisions? -ie.. not your ie, not in agreement with what you suggest? personaly i think this situation is just classic example of the blame game. A sittuation i am about to quit my job over.

    The word ownership is pure gaslighting, I'm not going to "own" my tasks when my company can lay off me in a hot second. Just pay your employees properly and communicate what needs to be done. Your work isn't your family.

    You've missed the point. Ownership is where you communicate clearly with yourself what has been happening and proactively try to fix it, on your own. Yes, you're responsible for your mistakes, but what are you doing to fix them? Obviously a management team that throws the book at you and delivers harsh reprimands, making sure you know how responsible you are for a screw up, you're less likely to own your responsibility to actually fix the problem. You're more likely to check out while at work and then the mistakes continue to occur.

    @@gabrielb426 I agree with you. My gripe is the word ownership being used to get employees to give more time and effort with really no real tangible incentives. It’s not like they will craft a roadmap where you hit these goals you will get these incentives, because so much of what we do in middle management is out of our control but under the control of the economy essentially. I see what you said is more of like “personal ownership” I.e. responsibility, accountability, etc. I just don’t like it when companies use the word like you actually own the damn business and you reap proportionate rewards from its success; you don’t.
