Anglų kalbos pamokėlė nr. 6 TEAM-BUILDING

TEXT

The art of team-building has been studied by many people, but possibly the most interesting work on the subject has been done by Dr Meredith Belbin. He identified 'personality team roles': the ideas person, the organiser, the diplomat, and so on. There are nine key personality types and a team will work most effectively if it has  them all. But a team of three could work together very successfully if, among them, the members combined the nine personality types.
