Description
The Belbin® Virtual Experience: Online Belbin team development
The Belbin Virtual Experience combines individual Team Role profiles with an online team feedback session. A facilitator helps colleagues explore their contributions, working relationships and the team’s collective strengths.
The The Belbin® Virtual Experience Process
- The process will kick off with a call with a Belbin facilitator during which we will establish your team building goals and desired outcomes and go through some very basic administrative set up requirements.
- Each team member will complete a Self-Perception Inventory (SPI) from the comfort of their own home or office – which takes 20 minutes online.
- On completion, each member will be asked to select between four and eight colleagues, associates or team members to complete what we refer to as an ‘Observer Assessment’ (OA).
- SPI and OA results are combined to produce each individual’s 360° Belbin® Team Role Profile – an eight-page personal report (see sample report) that offers advice and guidance on how an individual might work best, communicate their preferences to others and cultivate their talents and strengths.
- The Belbin Administration System will also produce a Belbin® Team Report that explores the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and risks for each team.
The Belbin® Online Team Feedback Session
Belbin’s online feedback workshop presents the results of your Belbin Team Role profiles and Team Report and illustrates how the roles and behaviours that we naturally perform best and worst can make a huge difference to our own productivity and our interactions with others.
The session focuses on how a team becomes effective when;
- Team members understand their own strengths and weaknesses and the strengths and weaknesses of their team members
- All nine Team Roles are represented within the Team
- How to exploit the team’s strengths and contain its weaknesses
Belbin Team Reports:
Individual profiles are analysed as a collective through a Belbin Team Report. This explores the strengths, ‘allowable’ weaknesses, opportunities and risks for team performance improvement.
In a nutshell, Belbin Team Role Profiles will give you:
- Self-aware individuals who can adapt their behaviours according to the situation and business need
- Balanced teams based on behavioural contributions rather than job titles
- The right people doing the right tasks, leading to better-performing teams
- Depersonalised team conversations, using a common language to discuss team contributions
- Informed, impartial decision-making, based on fact rather than a ‘gut-feel’ which may be subject to unconscious bias
- Confidence when making decisions involving people
- Insight into behavioural strengths and weaknesses which aren’t necessarily revealed by a CV
- The language to help facilitate coaching conversations
