Accountability:  “an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for one’s actions.”

Synergy:  in business, “a mutually advantageous conjunction of distinct business participants.”

 Webster’s

Objective:  Establish teams to help individuals remain focused and motivated as they achieve their employment goals.

Benefit:  Add structure to stay on course with support and new ideas from team members until landing.  Become accountable to yourself with help from your peers.

Why: 

• Goal:  determine a job/career that is aligned with personal and financial needs.
• Focus:  set short term objectives that when achieved bring the individual closer to landing the desired job.
• Assess:  review and record weekly progress.
• Adjust:  set new objectives based upon achievement of existing objectives.

How:

• Establish teams with a maximum of eight members.
• Conduct weekly meetings at a regular, pre-determined site.
• Each team has one facilitator to keep the discussion and assessment on track.

The goal of the Accountability Group is to help job seekers stay motivated and on track.  The success for each individual is dependent upon each member’s participation.  As an accountability group member you must commit to the group and its meeting schedules.  We understand that on occasion one may not be able to attend a meeting due to illness, job interview, family emergency, or other significant situation which is acceptable.  However, if a group member misses three meetings that individual’s participation will be suspended.  If, and when, the suspended individual’s schedule can accommodate a group meeting schedule, and commit to regular participation, they are welcomed to re-join.
