Everyone in a group accepts responsibilities when the group is formed. There are certain responsibilities every member must be aware of and follow. Without every member fully participating the group cannot function as it's absolute best. Some important ethical responsibilities are:
1. Do your best - When joining a group you need to offer every skill you have. If every member puts in 100% a group can preform at its absolute best but if you hold back skills because you are afraid of work the final product will not be as good as it could be.
2. Good of the group - When you are part of a group you need to put the needs of the whole in front of your own. Every member of the group should have a say in decisions and in it is necessary to consider others ideas even if they don't match what you think.
3. Fair play - Solving problems is a cooperative event, you must keep personal issues aside.
4. Fair hearing - When in a group every member had a voice. You can expect to have your voice heard by all other members and in return you have to be willing to hear others. You can also expect feedback and for everyone to take your suggestions seriously but again you must return the courtesy.
5. Appropriate team behaviour - If you are a team leader it is necessary for you to model good behaviour, provide feedback, acknowledge effort, and keep the team on track.
If every member of a team fulfils these basic responsibilities the team and everyone in it will have a much better experience and produce better results.
