IN PERSON - Building a Culture of Accountability

Many leaders believe that being accountable is a trait you either have or don’t have by the time you enter the workforce. But often, leaders are also unwittingly creating conditions that make it harder for others to be accountable. In our session, we’ll share strategies for fostering a team culture where members take ownership of their work and help you find a way through your own accountability challenges.

About Fiona Siseman:
Fiona is a leadership coach and co-founder of Frank & Eddy Leadership, Inc., where she helps leaders in tech — especially over-thinkers and self-doubters — build self-awareness, resilience, and collaborative leadership practices to thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
Before launching F&E, Fiona built and led software development organizations across project management, engineering leadership, agile coaching, and operations, at one point leading a cross-functional team of 130 people.
She is endlessly curious about human behavior: What is driving this? Why is this thing hard to say? What purpose does this have? How can we work with this to get the outcome that we want? She finds joy in helping leaders untangle limiting beliefs and assumptions to address what truly matters. Her pragmatic, empathetic approach empowers leaders to overcome challenges, build collaborative teams, and discover their unique leadership style.

About Alia Rose Connor:
Alia is a leadership coach with a background in engineering, management, and entrepreneurship. Prior to launching Frank & Eddy Leadership (with Fiona!), she was a coach manager at Spotify for 7 years of explosive growth, where she helped product and engineering leaders (Sr, Director, VP) lead through continual change. She specializes in supporting engineering and product leaders on collaborative leadership teams, and is passionate about digging into understanding – within oneself and amongst others – in order to provoke change and get to impact faster.
