Accountability Begins When No One Is Watching


Accountability in Action

June 2025

Hello, Transform360 community!

The long nights are upon us. Do you lie in bed, warm under the covers, and wonder about your choices? Question who you are? I do... And no matter where the thoughts go, they always circle back to the same truth.

We’ve all heard the phrase “own your path.” It looks great on Instagram—but what does it really mean? What does it look like in real life, when nobody’s watching?

This month, we’re diving into real accountability—the kind that shows up not just in your intentions, but in your calendar, your results, and your relationships. Accountability isn’t just saying “I’ve got this.” It’s in the doing. The quiet follow-through. The courage to own the outcome—good or bad.

At Transform360, we believe accountability is where vision becomes reality. So here’s your June challenge:
Don’t just take responsibility. Take action.


Activity

What grows you

Let’s get honest—with ourselves. Take 10 minutes for this reflection and then do it with your team:

1. What have I said I’d do this year that I haven’t yet started or followed through on?
(Be honest. No judgement—just awareness.)

2. What’s getting in the way?
(Excuses or realities—name them. Naming reduces their power.)

3. What is ONE small action I can take this week to move it forward?

Now, write that action down. Share it with a colleague. Put it on a sticky note. And more importantly—do it.

Sharing helps with accountability - but truly it is to your own self you must answer.

Case Study: Core Values, Real Accountability

In Ryan Fernandez’s latest Lessons in Leadership podcast, he poses a powerful question:
Are we truly living the values we claim to stand for?

It’s easy for teams and leaders to list core values on walls, websites, and strategic documents—but accountability begins where alignment lives. When values and actions don’t match, trust erodes. When they do? Culture thrives.
