Episode 27: We Do Accountability
/I DO, WE DO - EPISODE 27: We Do Accountability
We’ve spent the last three episodes talking about our goal setting process and now it’s time to get to the most important part -- ACTION. We’ve given each other permission to hold us accountable to our goals. But to make sure this doesn’t turn into nagging, we have built some structure around how we will hold ourselves & each other accountable to our 2019 goals. We share more about our Action + Accountability plan, our regular check-ins, and structured work sessions. You can grab your own copy of our Action + Accountability Plan at bashleymoyer.com/action.

Our two methods for getting stuff done - regular check ins & scheduled work sessions
What we talk about in our regular check ins
Daily - where we discuss immediate needs & actions, allows us to make sure we working on our goals every single day
Weekly - scheduled on calendar, a time to regroup & revisit our Action + Accountability plan and figure out who is working on what for the next week
Monthly- where we get a bit more strategical, determine what tweaks (or pivot) we need
Quarterly- more of a retreat-like check in, a time to hit the reset button
Each check-in we zoom out a bit more and take a look at the big picture
Giving you all permission to hold us accountable to our goals
Once a quarter, we will come back on the podcast and give you all an update on our progress to our goals
