Presented by Brian Bedford and Julie Miller

Join us in March for a program on installing an accountability based culture. At this meeting, Brian Bedford and Julie Miller will define accountability and explain why accountability is important. They will also show how accountability should link to business strategy and share examples of accountability done well, done badly, and the cost and links to the bottom line. You will also learn a 4-Step Process to install a culture and talk about feedback and how it's vital to the culture process, and share a helpful model.

You will learn:

• How a One-page strategy document helps drive business success
• To identify and define the culture you need to be successful
• How to make culture "stick"
• The importance of giving and receiving feedback to kick-start your culture
• That accountability, culture and success go hand in hand!
