The Belbin analysis allows the identification of other roles (manageable roles) that the team member can perform well, if asked. It also shows roles that the team member would absolutely hate to be asked to perform (least preferred roles).
Is Belbin test good?
Whilst Belbin isn't a psychometric test (Belbin measures behaviour rather than personality), peer-reviewed research demonstrates that Belbin reliability is good across all Team Roles. There are two kinds of reliability: test-retest and internal consistency.
Belbin's theory states that there are nine roles which need to be occupied within any team. These are: Shaper, Coordinator, Plant, Resource Investigator, Monitor Evaluator, Specialist, Teamworker, Implementer, Completer Finisher.

A Belbin Individual Report will identify which combination of the nine Belbin Team Roles you exhibit. It costs just £42 inc VAT. Completed online, it is a straightforward and easy process: Fill in an online questionnaire - it takes around 20 minutes to complete.
How long does the Belbin test take?
