Team Roles

SC: To be able to successfully complete and score the results for the Belbin test.
- To consider what my team role is.
- To learn how a successful team actually works.

According to the Belbin Team Roles, I am the Team Worker and the Implementer. I got a total of 11 points for Team Worker and 10 points for Implementer. My lowest was 5 points for the Shaper. My prediction was accurate since I got the highest score for the Team Worker.

The strengths for the Team Worker are:
- Mild mannered, sociable and concerned about the wellbeing of other team members.
- Demonstrate flexibility.
- Able to adapt to suit different situations taking into account the wishes of other people.
- High levels of emotional intelligence.
- Diplomatic.
- Ensure that conflict in the team is minimised.
- Ensure the smooth running of the team.
- Morales are usually higher when we are around.

The weakness for the Team Worker is that we can be indecisive in dynamic situations.

The strengths for the Implementer are:
- Has common sense, self-control and discipline.
- Not afraid of hard work and prefer to tackle tasks in a systematic way.
- Well organised.
- Having loyalty to the team above loyalty to themselves or other groups outside their team.
- Frequently rise towards the top of organisations because they are seen as efficient and well organised.

The weaknesses for the Implementer are:
- May be seen as dull, hardworking and inflexible.
- May sometimes lack charisma.
