محاسـبة الذات


Explanation:
In most context, "accountability" means the principle of holding people accountable for their actions. Example: President Obama recently said that, “democracy requires accountability and accountability requires transparency.”

The way I read it In this context, however, it means holding oneself accountable for one's own actions (or performance level). This appears to be a new meaning developing mostly in the world of business. I saw it recently in a project about safety on off-shore oil rigs.
