Thought Tweet #467 Consequences are the legs that support accountability.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Where consequences do not register, in the end there can be no accountability. Consequences take the form of rewards...either positive or negative. Consequences are the 'effect' half of 'cause & effect'. If we remove the 'effect that follows accountability' then we also remove the accountability.

Better carrots than sticks; better sticks than nothing.
