What role have I played in a group role; What role have you played in this group?

I have participated in my group activities, both from work and school. I normally will like to see how the group is progressing and them I will see what approach a can take. If the group is flowing and we all have chosen a role so them a will help out with my ideas and do my task, another thing is that if another person has problem doing their part i will offer my help to assist them, and the same if I need help I will ask for it. Know your group helps when delegating the task, if you do not know them, you will have start to know them, to better understand them and the culture or way of operating. Some group member will be need assistants but will not ask for the fear of rejection and loosing the groups acceptance. I suggest that at the beginning clear the area and make sure that the group know that we all work for one goal, even so that we have different task but it will only work if we work as one not individually.

The role a I played in a group is of research, investigating support for engineers on looking for solution on problems the production worker have doing their daily task, accordingly to the progress that they we trained. Another role is data collector for a school project, I had to interview, get all the data, clean it up and present in class.
