“With great power comes great responsibility.” These words of Ben Parker describe responsibility is an important aspect of an authorized person. It is emphasizing the leader should be mature enough to throw oneself into the dilemma as the one struggles to solve it. But, “Capital G” by Nine Inch Nails and “What the Defence-Plant Worker Said” by Bonnie Day show the exact opposite side of the quote. Two pieces of writings satirically portray two indifferent leaders who ignore and avoid any own hand produced tragedies.

People today believe that to be powerful you have to be known and rich. While that may be partly true, an individual is powerful if they possess the ability to show responsibility, courage, determination, and initiative.
Responsibility means having an obligation to deal with something. Some people feel honored to take responsibility, but most people want to run away from it. In the book, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, the author describes what happened in her life starting from her earliest memory. Together with her family, they strive to survive whatever life throws at them. Most of their decisions are made by her dad, Rex Walls, who is also incidentally the root of their problem -- or at least the majority of them. He is a highly skilled and intelligent man but with little to no sense of responsibility and resistance to temptations. We can see this when he was teaching Jeannette, when he tried to stop drinking alcohol, and when he was driving their car as fast as it could go.
We as humans always doubt ourselves and believe that we are inadequate. We won’t accept how powerful we actually are, because it scares us. What would we do with so much power? Would it be good or bad? Would it be wasted? If great responsibility comes with great power, are we responsible enough to handle it? Most of us are, but we don’t know it. That’s why Carter tells his team that so often, because they’re so afraid of being inadequate, they’re not focusing on how much power they
The word accountability is toss around so much latterly it is hard to ignore it. What exactly is accountability? Everyone claims they are doing it yet so many leaders and employees lack the concept of accountability. Accountability is a subject that ranges through every spectrum of life. Accountability is hold each person responsible his or her own actions in the given situation, especially when we know the circumstances. If we are not to hold each other responsible for each of our own actions and choices then we will never be able to correct problems and concerns, which will make us fail as a whole because the smallest individual action can account for the gravest of consequence.
The reason for this Rbi is to inform the reader of accountability, the duties of NCO's, and failure to report.
People got power because they got money. People that don’t got no money have less power.in John Steinbeck Of Mice and Men we also see people with different level of power. In the novel Curley and the Boss and Lennie all have different source of power. In mice and man the the character is the boss he deals with a lot of money.

The theory that I find true to the true nature of moral responsibility and its relation to human freedom and determinism would be compatibilism. Compatibilism is the claim that we are both determined and that we have moral responsibility (Lawhead 120).
Oxford Dictionaries defines the word responsibility as “The state or fact of having a duty to deal with something or of having control over someone” (1). From a young age, every person must accept responsibility for decisions that he or she makes. As situations arise that must be dealt with, people have a duty to deal with those situations. In many ways, the act of living itself is an act of ultimate responsibility. In Robert Penn Warren’s classic novel, All the King’s Men, the central characters of the novel all have to deal with the consequences of their actions, although many of the characters try to avoid this solemn duty of life. Through analyzing the actions and inactions of the central characters, many important lessons on responsibility can be derived from the novel.
Explorer Edmund Hillary once said “I think it all comes down to motivation. If you really want to do something, you will work hard for it.” Being driven allows people to stay on their track until they get what they achieve. In Macbeth by William Shakespeare, the main character Macbeth was motivated to become the king. In Lord of the Flies by William Golding, Jack kept his goal of becoming the leader of the island, and stuck with it throughout their time on the island. Although intelligence allows one to be in power, motivation is more important for attaining power because it allows one to keep trying until they achieve what is desired.
Responsibility is a key component in establishing a person’s character and a vital part of human existence. Of the three definitions the Oxford Dictionary provides, the one of most relevance is; the opportunity or ability to act independently and take decisions without authorization. This definition is particularly important because the decisions a person makes without the influence of others essentially denotes a person’s character and displays who they truly are. Throughout life, numerous opportunities are brought about which require a person to take responsibility and make the appropriate choices. Students are expected to be responsible throughout their academic careers by upholding the standards established by the institution they are

Rotter’s (1966) locus of control consist of internal and external control; Internal control involves shaping your own destiny by your own actions, whereas, External control implies the future is predetermined regardless of one’s actions (Sue & Sue, 2013).
Being responsible refers to our ability to make decisions that serve our own interests and the interests of others. We first need to be responsible for ourselves before we can be responsible for others. In learning to be more responsible it is important that we know our limitations. It does not matter how smart we are, there is only so much responsibility that one person can handle at any given time. It is also important to remember that we are not responsible for thing that are out of our control, for example, how other people think and feel or how they react to ourselves or others. Sharing responsibility for both success and failure can lead to increased responsibility to oneself and to others. When you
Responsibility in a person is a must as they can be more trusting and dependable if they have even the slightest amount of responsibility unlike those who don’t have any they can be lacking in many things and most people will see them as drags on society. Not only that, but they seem to have negative impressions with everyone else as they do not really help contribute to the betterment of mankind but that is how most people act in today’s world. But they still seem to go on and make the best of the day that they can. Responsibility is hard for a lot of people, it puts stress on you and makes people think you’re dependent so they might start asking more from you.
