[You're invited] How to hold people accountable (without being the bad guy)
Share

When I got my first couple of management roles, I failed, hard, at ‘accountability’.

I kept having the same conversations over and over again.
Deadlines slipped. Goals weren’t met.
And I was too nervous to call it out… I didn’t want to be “that manager.”

Sound familiar?

Here’s what changed everything:

I started working with the best.
From multi-million pound founders to the guy who literally built Microsoft Excel (yes, really).
And I noticed: they had non-negotiable systems for accountability… And their teams delivered because of it.

I started applying them.
Then my team stepped up.
Targets started actually being hit.

And I realised I didn’t have to choose between being kind and holding the bar high, I could do both.

Now I’m teaching those exact methods in a live online workshop:

💥 How to Hold People Accountable (Without Being the Bad Guy) 💥

In this high-impact session, you’ll learn:

  • ✅ The 5-step framework to finally get your team smashing their KPIs

  • ✅ Exactly what to say when someone drops the ball

  • ✅ Why being “nice” is secretly holding your team back (and what to do instead)

  • ✨ BONUS: You’ll also get my 30-day Accountability Tracker to implement it immediately
