This session will provide practical guidance for how to cultivate the power of personal accountability within your organization.

For years, organizations have been investing time, money and energy into engaging employees based on the promise that engagement drives results. But many organizations report that despite their best efforts, engagement isn't enough. It is the organizations who cultivate a culture of personal accountability who are truly winning. It's when engagement and accountability meet that breakthrough performance occurs. You will learn the fundamental flaws of the way we employee engagement has been measured and what to do about it. You will be introduced to the concept of Reality-_Based Engagement where accountability and engagement intersect to produce significant results.

Cy Wakeman is a drama researcher, global thought-leader, and New York Times best-selling author who is recognized for cultivating a counter-intuitive, reality-based approach to leadership. Backed by 20 years of experience, Wakeman’s philosophy offers a new lens through which employees and executives alike, can shift their attention inward, sharpen their focus on personal accountability, and uncover their natural state of innovation simply by ditching the drama.

Deemed “the secret weapon to restoring sanity to the workplace,” Wakeman has helped companies such as Google, Facebook, NASA, Pfizer, Bank of America, and United Healthcare learn to harness energy wasted in workplace drama and reinvest that effort into achieving profound business results.
