Which action best demonstrates integrity in a team setting?

• A. Lead by avoiding extra tasks.
• B. Always be willing to do the dirty jobs and lead by example.
• C. Only follow orders and never contribute ideas.
• D. Let others take responsibility for all tasks.

Answer: (B)

Integrity in a team means acting honestly, taking responsibility, and sticking to your commitments even when it’s difficult. Demonstrating this by always being willing to do the dirty jobs and leading by example shows you won’t shy away from hard tasks, you share the workload, and you model the behavior you expect from others. That reliability builds trust, accountability, and a sense of fairness within the group, which are essential for a cohesive, high-performing team—especially in settings where safety and dependability matter.

Avoiding extra tasks signals a lack of ownership. Merely following orders and never contributing ideas shows passive compliance, not integrity. Letting others take all the responsibility reflects avoidance and unwillingness to support the team.
