Many teams across organisations lack a sense of ownership of results, they may all be doing their own pieces of the puzzle but no one is taking ownership of the entire result. What people say tells you a lot about how they see the current reality and in this episode, Andrea outlines 10 phrases that demonstrate you may have an issue with a lack of ownership in your organisation. KEY TAKEAWAYS It’s not my problem, it’s up to someone else to take care of it Why should I contribute when others aren’t doing their part I don’t see how my actions affect the results It’s not my responsibility to make things happen, ask someone else Leave me alone I can’t be expected to take ownership of something that’s not directly related to my role I didn’t have a say in the decision-making process so I don’t feel responsible for the outcome It’s not my team I’m just following instructions Why should I put in extra effort when other people aren’t pulling their weight? BEST BITS “Ownership is really responsibility at another level” “That is a sign of lack of ownership as people feel they are not part of the solution” “Language is a good demonstration of perception of ownership” “Ownership is helping each other get things done” VALUABLE RESOURCES Like the show?
