Are You Leading with Integrity — or Letting Drift Define You?


Hi Reader,

Most leaders say they value accountability.

Few actually enforce it.

The cracks always start small:

  • Double standards.
  • Unspoken expectations.
  • Avoided conversations.
  • Then, mediocrity sets in, rebranded as "the way we do things."

If you're not holding yourself and others to clear, enforced standards, you're not leading.

You're managing dysfunction and enabling drift.

Leadership drift doesn’t make headlines. It just quietly undermines your credibility.

A single missed expectation becomes a habit.

Trust erodes. Goals slip. Team morale plummets.

Soon, you’ve created a culture that accepts underperformance, and you’re part of it.


The Leadership Accountability Audit™

A 10-minute gut-check of your leadership integrity.

No personality quizzes.

No warm-and-fuzzy hypotheticals.

Just a sharp, strategic look at whether you're leading with standards or slipping into drift.

You’ll assess yourself across five Accountability Domains:

  • Intent – Are you modeling what you expect?
  • Structure & Clarity – Does everyone know what’s expected — and why?
  • Enforcement & Follow-Through – Do you walk your talk?
  • Communication & Feedback – Are you creating clarity or chaos?
  • Monitoring & Adaptation – Are you course-correcting or coasting?

Each section includes direct, no-fluff statements.

You rate them.

No essays.

No spin. Just the truth.

Your Results — Instantly

You'll land in one of four categories:

  • Accountable Leader – You’ve built the foundation. Stay sharp.
  • Practicing Accountability – You’re growing. Tighten the gaps.
  • Inconsistent Accountability – You’re talking the talk. Start enforcing.
  • At Risk for Leadership Drift – You're on the edge. One more excuse, and you're done.

No Tracking. No Spam. No Excuses.

Just you. Your standards. Your mirror.

If you can’t confront your accountability gaps, you have no business leading anyone else.


Want to Go Deeper?

If you're ready for clarity, consequence, and control, a focused 30-minute consultation is available after the audit.

Beyond Myth: Reclaiming American Patriotism by Karl Bimshas

Hi Reader, Many years ago, I developed a quirky habit of writing an annual Fourth of July essay. Some years for private consumption and reflection, some years public, like my 2007 essay, which was published as a letter to the editor in the Boston Globe. Below is this year's entry into the catalog. Beyond Myth: Reclaiming American Patriotism As we mark, acknowledge, and celebrate 249 years since the birth of the United States, it is right to recall that the Founding Fathers, those venerated...
