The Belbin® Team Roles system is a scientifically validated method for identifying individuals’ behavioral strengths and weaknesses, and their likely contributions to a team. Knowing this information allows maximum team fluidity and response, as each individual can be deployed when and where it most benefits the team. Not surprisingly, team members report greater engagement and more job satisfaction because they get to use their skills, avoid their shortcomings, and do more of what they like and are good at. The upshot is that overall goals can be achieved faster.
