How are you feeling today?
How appreciated do you feel by your immediate/direct supervisor?
How well do you believe you and your colleagues know how to express appreciation for each other?
How appreciated do you feel by each of your colleagues? How appreciated do you feel by each of your colleagues?
To be accountable means that we are willing to be responsible to another person for our behavior and it implies a level of submission to another's opinions and viewpoints.

It was not curiosity that killed the goose who laid the golden egg, but an insatiable greed that devoured common sense.
