โœฆ Synopsis

Abstract

With the trend toward selfโ€management comes increasing accountability of individuals to their coworkers
and organizations. There is an implicit assumption that workers like selfโ€management and the accompanying
accountability, despite little supporting empirical evidence. This study examines the idea that workers'
perceptions of their level of accountability are related to their job satisfaction. A significant correlation was
found between job satisfaction and perceived accountability to coworkers and perceived accountability to management.
In addition, we found that accountability to both coworkers and management was positively related to trust in
supervisors and managers. However, only two aspects of accountabilityโ€”manager and coworker
awarenessโ€”seem to explain the variance in job satisfaction and trust. Practical applications of the findings
are explained.
