Crucial Accountability Tools for Resolving Violated Expectations, Broken Commitments, and Bad Behavior Whether a stranger cuts in line at the movie theater or a trusted coworker misses a deadline, we have all experienced disappointment resulting from poor behavior and broken promises. How do we hold others accountable when expectations are not met? There appears to be no right answer: either we perpetuate the problem by saying nothing, or create a new problem by speaking up. These tough issues present themselves in both the workplace and in our personal lives.
