Abstract
In Accountability Leadership, Gerald Kraines presents a radical and revisionist point of view in support of hierarchy and accountability as tools to boost organizational productivity. In his work consulting for major corporations throughout the country, Gerald Kraines consistently hears that 60 percent to 70 percent of any organization's potential effectiveness goes unrealized. If everyone in the organization were doing exactly what they were suppose to do and did so at full potential, imagine how much more effective companies could be!
