I agree with you. The truth is, the high performers meet the deadlines with ease, and go beyond them pretty much effortlessly the majority of the time, so holding them accountable doesn't make them scared, it gives them a platform to feature their ability.

One of the best ways to lose your top performers is not to hold everyone accountable.
