BELBIN®
Belbin Self Perception Inventory and Observer team role profiling (360°) is used as a diagnostic tool to profile the individual team role preferences.
The definition of a BELBIN team role by Dr. Meredith Belbin is “A tendency to behave, contribute and interrelate with others in a particular way” in facilitating the progress of a team. BELBIN team roles describe a pattern of behaviour that characterises one person’s behaviour in relation to another whilst working in a team environment. The value of BELBIN team-role theory lies in enabling an individual or team to benefit from self-knowledge and adjust according to the demands being made by the external situation.
The nine team roles are Plant, Shaper, Co-ordinator, Monitor Evaluator, Completer Finisher, Team worker, Specialist, Resource Investigator and Implementer.
- eHands
Training Records from eHands Health and Safety Software.
Fresh Air Thinking has worked with eHands Limited in the development of a training records module which can not only record health and safety training but can also record training records. Trainees and courses are both selected from a drop down lists and the date of the training is recorded along with the date of any refresher if appropriate. The system can then be used to manage refresher training more proactively as well as demonstrating employee competence.
