KEY TAKEAWAY

 “ In sort of standard accountability, we often think of it as an individual's domain or  sometimes I call it an ‘individual sport’. So in other words, ‘I just need to be responsible for me and the things that I'm supposed to do, and if I do that, then that's being accountable.’ Whereas conscious accountability invites a shared response. Something that we share together that we're also thinking about. [We are thinking about] our larger shared goal and how the people around me are doing and [asking] ‘what do they need in order to achieve the goal?’.”
