Summary Note: "Broken promises, missed deadlines, poor behaviour - they don’t just make others’ lives miserable; they can sap up to 50 percent of organizational performance and account for the vast majority of divorces. 'Crucial accountability' offers the tools for improving relationships in the workplace and in life and for resolving all these problems - permanently." - Back cover. Edition: Second edition. General Note: "This book is a companion to 'Crucial conversations: tools for talking when stakes are high' ... Crucial conversations deal with high-stakes interactions where emotions run strong and opinions vary. Crucial accountability deals with a subset of these interactions. After parties have come to a common understanding and assignments have been made - meaning things are on course - someone fails to complete his or her assignment. All accountability conversations start with the question 'Why didn't you keep your commitment?' And they end, not merely a solution is reached, but when it's done in such a manner that both parties are able to comply and the relationship is strengthened." - p. xvii. First edition published as "Crucial confrontations".
