title: Value, purpose and accountability: the language of organizational intentions.
abstract: A schemata is proposed which provides a framework that associates value, purpose and accountability, in a manner that contributes to a common language with recognizable meanings in discussion and analysis of organizational intentions. The definition of key terms, their hierarchical relationships, and characteristics of the grammar that tie value, purpose and accountability together to assure meaningful dialogues among administrators and those with whom they discuss organizational work, is suggested.
