Commit to Decisions
When team members are able to offer opinions and debate ideas, they feel heard and respected, and will be more likely to commit to decisions.
Accountability
Hold One Another Accountable
Once everyone is committed to a clear plan of action, they will be more willing to hold one another accountable.
