Do you Know Your work responsibility?

If you are asked to work on a team project and one of the members doesn't contribute on time, don't sit back and place blame. Take 100% responsibility to complete the task with or without the difficult teammate. Do what it takes to get the job done. You can assertively and helpfully confront the non-contributor. If that fails, work with the remaining team members to pick up the slack, finish the project and then address the issue with appropriate management.
