Intro to Belbin

Review team reports, build a shared language, and turn insights into quick wins.

A practical introduction to the nine Belbin Team Roles, grounded in your team’s own data. We review Individual Reports, highlight strengths and allowable weaknesses, and create a quick Team Role Map to surface gaps and surpluses—so you leave with clear next steps.

  • Pre-session Belbin completion (Self-Perception + Observer input where available)
  • Facilitated review of Individual Reports: top roles, coherence, allowable weaknesses
  • Quick Team Role Map to spot gaps, surpluses, and immediate action areas
  • Practical next steps: play to strengths, manage weaknesses, set team ground rules

If reports aren’t completed in advance, we can run a report-lite demo and focus the session on foundations.

Belbin Discovery

Benchmark performance, map your team, and leave with clear ground rules.

A hands-on day that turns Belbin insight into team change. We measure how your team collaborates today, analyze Individual Reports, build a Team Role Map (voids, surpluses, scarce roles), and use the Team Accelerator® Index to agree on pragmatic ground rules and next steps.

  • Interactive Team Interaction exercises (two rounds) with debriefs
  • Belbin Individual Reports review: strengths, allowable weaknesses, coherence
  • Team Role Map to identify voids/surpluses and scarce resources
  • Team Accelerator® Index to diagnose collaboration and prioritize improvements
  • Concrete outputs: agreed ground rules, action plan, owners, and timelines

Optional add-ons: pre/post TA Index benchmarking and follow-up facilitation.

3 days Leadership Deep dive

An intensive, experiential 3-day program that builds executional effectiveness: higher-quality, faster decisions; productive conflict; shorter, focused meetings; and stronger cross-team collaboration. Participants receive feedback and develop personalized action plans, with Belbin Role Profiles used to optimize team design.

  • Recognize leadership styles & their impact on results
  • Learn and apply Learning Cycles: feedback, inquiry/advocacy, conflict management skills
  • Use Belbin Role Profiles to design/align roles for better decision quality
  • In-depth team feedback & individual action plans for sustained change

Tailored Flexible Outcome-focused

Custom Workshop

Blend formats and focus areas to target your goals, timelines, and audience.

We’ll scope a bespoke session that fits your context—mixing elements from Intro to Belbin, Belbin Discovery, and Team Accelerator. Typical applications include accelerating a new leadership team, unblocking cross-team collaboration, or aligning around role clarity before a major initiative or change.

  • Tailored agenda: choose Belbin report reviews, Team Role Mapping, TA Index, decision labs, and more
  • Designed for your objectives (e.g., launch readiness, culture reset, post-merger integration)
  • Clear deliverables: decisions, ground rules, role clarity, and a near-term action plan

We’ll propose options (½-day, 1-day, multi-session) with pricing once we understand your goals and audience.

Team Collaboration Mapping

A program that maps how work really flows across teams and embeds habits that keep collaboration healthy.

Team Collaboration Mapping runs over several touchpoints to align leadership, measure current collaboration patterns, and redesign how decisions, handoffs, and roles work across teams. Through eLearning and a self-guided workshop, Belbin insights plus practical operating rules are used to remove friction and speed up results.

  • Individual Learning: Belbin Team Role report and eLearning module
  • Team Collaboration Maps: Maps team contributions and allowable weaknesses; establishes voids, surpluses, and scarce resources
  • Ground rules & role clarity: Align roles and responsibilities; practical foundations for long-lasting implementation

Designed for any team or cross-functional group that needs more clarity, cohesion, and momentum — from high-performing units aiming to go further, to newly formed teams aligning after change.
