Mainly according to Belbins there are diversity of personalities and diversity of roles in a one team. Each member perform specific task naturally. Sometime those are not assigned but they are naturally performed by a member or members. According to Belbins identification of those roles can be used as strength and it will be a useful for the team to work together by identification of each of the role.
Belbin introduce nine team roles by his experiment. He dived nine roles as, 03 action oriented people, 03 people oriented people and 03 cerebral roles. Those nine roles are explained using activity done by the guest lecture. • Plant Plants are imaginative , unconventional and generators of thoughts.
In the event that an inventive answer for an issue is required, a Plant is a decent individual to inquire. A decent Plant will be brilliant and free-considering. Plants can have a tendency to overlook odds and ends. The Plant may be personified as the oblivious educator/innovator, and regularly experiences considerable difficulties conveying thoughts to others. Different Plants in a group can prompt mistaken assumption,t he same number of thoughts are produced without adequate wisdom or the driving force to finish the plans to activity.
Plants can likewise make issues with the planning of their thoughts. The way that the group has chosen a substantial route forward and is presently in the usage stage won’t prevent the Plant from thinking of new arrangements and upsetting the execution procedure • Resource investigator The Resource Investigator gives a group a surge of excitement toward the beginning of the task by overwhelmingly seeking after contacts and openings.

Shapers could hazard getting to be forceful and awful humored in their endeavors to complete things. Shapers frequently consider hindrances to be energizing difficulties and they have a tendency to have the strength to push on when others have a craving for stopping • Monitor Evaluator monitor Evaluators are best at investigating and assessing thoughts that other individuals (regularly Plants) think of.
These individuals are keen and goal, and they precisely measure the upsides and downsides of the considerable number of alternatives before going to a choice. monitor Evaluators are basic masterminds and exceptionally vital in their approach. They are regularly seen as separated or dispassionate. Once in a while they are poor sparks who respond to occasions as opposed to inciting them • Team worker Team workers are the general population who offer help and ensure that individuals inside the group are cooperating viably.
They always like to work as a member of the team. This is a famous type of role i9n Belbins theory. These have a tendency to be prevalent individuals who are extremely able in their own right, however who organize group attachment and helping individuals get along • Implementer Implementers are the general population who complete things.

They have a field of expertise and they are pride of themselves knowledge. • Summary table Action oriented roles Shaper Improve the ability of the team Implementer Ideas in act Complete finisher Try to finish on time People oriented roles Coordinator chairperson Team Worker Encourage the co operation Resource Investigator Gets outside help Cerebral roles Plant Implement new ideas Monitor Evaluator Analyzes options have Specialist Giving specialized knowledge According to the activity done in the guest lecture we had a chance to find what character that we are in group. Not only that but also that help the group to work effectively and efficiently. We got A4 sheets, plastic cups, tape, and etc. to make the clogard smart tower.
In that team work we planned to make the highest tower to hold the brush. Same members gave same innovate ideas (plant), one friend coordinate work and he make the work done from the other by acting as the chairperson (Coordinator),one member went for see what doing other team (resource Investigator), one person always try to give special ideas of making the tower more stable (specialized), one member always think of the time and he always try to finish the building the time on time (Complete finisher), two members always try to work as a member of the team and they implement the ideas provided by the others (Implementer), same members analyze options in the team work and they work in the team by analyzing those options provided (Monitor Evaluator), two members are always provide new ideas to the group and they always improve the ability of the team (shaper), there are three members who always encourage the cooperation and they are always try to work as a member of the team ( Team workers). From that activity we have identify what character is we are according to the Belbins theory. That help us to identify our character and to work in the team effectively. Identifying those roles make things easier to handle.
With the dividing of the work it was easy to work as a team. Belbins team roles theory will be a good for us when we are working in a team.
