Team members will continuously address concerns with problem team members

Members that not meeting expectations will be talked to by the group and negotiate ways to resolve problem behavior
Members that are not acting properly will also be addressed by the group in hopes of resolving the problem
Redefining goals, expectations, and responsibilities is acceptable as long as the whole group agrees upon the final result
GTA’s and UTA’s will be consulted once a conflict is unresolved by the group and a critical problem will arise.
