Accountability and blame both involve questions of responsibility, but they serve different purposes. Accountability establishes what happened, who is responsible, what needs to change, and how commitments will be honored. Blame focuses more narrowly on fault and culpability. Understanding the distinction helps leaders address mistakes and misconduct without sacrificing fairness, learning, or trust.
