Emotionally intelligent people are self-aware and are alert to the verbal and non-verbal signals of others, ensuring that their communication skills and ability to build relationships are more effective.

Accountability can be difficult to find in the workplace, but it is one of the most important characteristics of high-performing teams and employees. In contrast, a lack of accountability can prevent businesses and individuals from reaching their full potential.

So, you might think that being accountable means you're the one who gets blamed when things go wrong. In fact, accountability is about helping people to take responsibility for their obligations. Accountability, done effectively, is a skill you can develop just like any other skill, and while it is not a difficult skill to acquire and hone, it does require a high degree of conscious effort. When you do it right, you'll also find it the fastest way to improve morale.
