Personal responsibility is very important within a group.

The law of cause and effect suggests that for every action, there is a reaction. This means that for everything you say, everything you do, and everything you think, a reaction or effect is caused. Ignoring this reality causes people to shirk their responsibilities because they do not believe that their actions really cause reactions.

If you do “a thing” there will be “a reaction.” If you accept this law of nature, then you can begin to see how irrational it is to deny responsibility for your actions.

An individual who takes responsibility for his actions in the workplace does not lie or try to avoid the consequences when something at work goes wrong. Those who try to avoid personal responsibility are not only acting in a way that is usually unethical for the company, but are also pushing the burden of responsibility onto another individual.
