Step 2: Encourage mistakes.
Organisations have long tried to eliminate the language of weakness from industry, because it can be difficult subject-matter.
But too often, the result is a blame culture or one where mistakes are brushed under the carpet.
Belbin Team Roles, or behavioural styles, encourage us to understand and own our weaknesses as a flipside to a certain behavioural strength.
This approach gives a framework to talk about what goes wrong and why, and helps develop strategies to counteract these difficulties.
