The Importance of Accountability in Building a Strong Culture In recent years, the term "toxic workplace" has dominated headlines, calling attention to harmful environments where abusive leadership and poor management prevail. However, Joe Poling, President and CRO of Think Consulting, raises an important question in his recent article in the Baltimore Business Journal : Are we misconstruing genuine accountability as toxicity? Poling expresses that fostering a culture of accountability—where expectations are clear, performance is valued, and results matter—is essential for both individual and organizational growth. True accountability is not about creating fear or micromanaging; it is about encouraging collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement. Lack of accountability, on the other hand, can often lead to low morale, high turnover, and the very toxicity it seeks to avoid. Good culture thrives on mutual respect, open feedback, and shared responsibility. When accountability is applied consistently and transparently, it becomes a foundation for innovation, trust, and a strong team dynamic. It ensures every team member understands their role, aligns with the organization’s goals, and feels empowered to overcome challenges together. At Think, we believe in the power of a culture that balances high standards with respect, trust, and fairness. If you share our values, are committed to fostering accountability and growth in your organization and still feel you have room to grow, we’d love to hear from you. Reach out today to explore how we can partner to create workplaces where excellence and collaboration thrive.

Back to the Office in 2025? As we head into the new year, many companies are re-evaluating their work models, with some considering a full return to the office. This insightful article featured in citybiz written by Joe Poling, Think’s President & Chief Revenue Officer and Josh Kaplan, Think’s Sr. VP of Operations & Chief of Staff explores how businesses can encourage employees to return to the office 5 days a week—focusing on using the carrot instead of the stick. Positive incentives like better office amenities, enhanced collaboration spaces, and career development opportunities can make the office more appealing. On the flip side, mandatory return-to-office policies may risk pushback, reduced morale, or talent loss in a hybrid-preferred market. What’s your take? Should companies embrace a full office return, stay hybrid, or rethink the traditional office altogether?
