If you lead to achieve a purpose, don’t blame anybody if you fail. Instead, blame yourself for you are the one accountable for your actions.
People around are your best resources to achieve your goal. They are there to support and not to pin you down. And, if there are times your decisions/actions have been influenced by them that resulted to failure, don’t blame them for they are not doing those decisions on your behalf.
You lead . . . and it goes with it the accountability that whatever the result ahead – either success or failure – you need to be prepared to receive either a commendation or a blame.
