Teams work better with Belbin

Belbin starts with the team

Understanding the team's strengths and weaknesses is the vehicle to realise sustainable improvements and boost team performance.

Belbin provides a holistic, data-driven view of the team, by collecting feedback from everyone. Our approach gets you to the root causes of conflict and miscommunication and provides a practical language to address them.

We speak your team's language

Belbin reports provide personalised behavioural insights and guidance based on our world-renowned Team Role methodology.

With Belbin, each team member collects feedback from others in the team. Including others' perceptions offers greater opportunities for improving self-awareness – and to recognise the collective strengths present in the team. Learn how to cultivate latent talents, collaborate more effectively and manage working relationships.

Become a Belbin Accredited Practitioner for additional confidence in applying the Belbin theory, and delivering report feedback and team workshops.

The gold-standard team tool

Belbin Team Role methodology was born from the original big-data research into what makes some teams more successful than others.

Our founder, Dr Meredith Belbin and his co-researchers, discovered nine 'Team Roles', each one being a distinct and predictable cluster of behaviours needed to facilitate team progress.

High-performing teams require a balance of all nine Team Roles. Belbin reports provide managers and individuals with the data and knowledge they need to build and manage effective teams.    

"I think we've always been striving to find a way of helping people to work together. When people work in effective combinations they achieve so much more than when they're working alone. But to do that, we need a language, and it needs to be a language which is shared and enables people to communicate with one another." – Dr Belbin
