Belbin was selected from a range of psychometrics due to its focus on the individual in the team environment. It has been a fantastic tool throughout our journey. We began our culture initiative with Belbin. Then, built upon the focus of team work to integrate the process within our recruitment procedure.

We have used the Belbin assessment tool to support the development of Job Profiles. And as a tool to consolidate agreement on the skills and attributes the recruiting panel are looking for. It can help surface different perspectives and support agreement. And what is really important in the role. All before you have even spoken with candidates.

We have utilised the individual tests and reports for consecutive years across the organisation. We are now seeing the rewards at an operational and strategic level.

Our management team felt they left the session with practical tools and techniques they could apply in the workplace. Such as holding supervision meetings with staff and giving and receiving feedback. I would recommend Belbin for any management teams keen to improve self-awareness. This can be used to improve their ability to develop their staff and work more cohesively as a team.

Aberdeen Foyer used Belbin individual assessment and group feedback as a way of opening up conversations between the team. It has built trust and confidence in each other. It is a great way of revealing people’s strengths and preferred styles of management.

Belbin helped us be more specific in our advertising of the roles. Going into the recruitment process with more confidence around the type of person and skills we were looking for. Would highly recommend as a process.
Leona McDermid CEO

We use Belbin to discuss inclusivity and leading diverse teams. It has provided delegates with greater insight into how they can create more effective teams and empower others based on their strengths. It has also given our staff the opportunity to reflect on their own role in their teams and what they can bring to create success.
Katie MenziesInterim Head of Talent
Katie Menzies
We quickly began to see improvements in behaviours between client team members. Resulting in an improvement in overall business performance. We also identified that with a lack of strength in a particular role. Our client had to look externally to bring someone in to complement the existing team. I was absolutely delighted with the results. I would have no hesitation in engaging Belbin in a similar situation in the future.
