The asker wants something and the giver is in a position to deliver it. To establish and reach a goal, communication between the asker and the giver must be clear and open. Research has shown that there is a strong link between accountability and psychological safety.  An ideal scenario is one in which the asker gets what they're looking for, and the giver feels that the promise was built on their word.
