Accountability

Accountability is the obligation to explain, justify, and take responsibility for one’s actions. Accountability is the state of being accountable, meaning responsible for something or obligated to answer to someone, such as a person with more authority, like a boss. The word accountability is often used in the context of individuals, especially in the term personal accountability. It is also commonly used in the context of institutions or people that are responsible to the public, such as the government, its agencies, politicians, and the media. Accountability is often discussed with transparency and consequences. This typically involves keeping people and organizations accountable by making their actions visible and having consequences when those actions are not acceptable. My Take: You can't hold other people to the same standards you don't hold for yourself. And you cannot Purposely create chaos and disorder and then play the victim. i.e. I did that because you did XYZ thing, etc.
