​

2. Fairness: Project managers should treat all team members, stakeholders, and suppliers fairly and without bias. Decisions should be made objectively, based on merit and relevant criteria.

​

3. Respect: Project managers should respect the dignity, diversity, and rights of all individuals involved in the project. This includes respecting cultural differences, individual opinions, and personal boundaries.

​

​
