A team role is a tendency to behave, contribute and interrelate with others in a particular way.
There are 9 team roles classified into 3 groups that influence team success.
  • Action-oriented roles(Tendency to take action to solve a problem)
    • Shaper: Challenges the team to improve
    • Implementer: Execute ideas 
    • Completer/Finisher: Ensure things are done on time
  • People-oriented roles(Focussed on interacting with people)
    • Coordinator: Chairperson
    • Team worker: Encourages cooperation
    • Resource Investigator: Explore outside opportunities
  • Thought-oriented roles
    • Plant: Presents new ideas and approaches
    • Monitor-evaluator: Evaluate options
    • Specialist: Provide specialised skills
Each team role is associated with typical behavioural and interpersonal strengths. Allowable weaknesses are characteristic weaknesses that tend to accompany each team role. Allowable weaknesses are to be aware of and potentially improved

Every role needed to achieve the team's goal is fully and well performed. A team often however, fall short of its full potential in spite of having clear responsibilities and roles
Some members do not complete what you expect them to complete.; others can be rather inflexible, causing things to be neglected; members valued for their expert may miss out some steps or tasks; disagreements may occur, causing one member to be frustrated.
Similar styles of behaviour amongst members can cause the team to become unbalanced. Similar weaknesses amongst members results in the team having the same weakness.]]> 2016-05-16 11:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ronaldoyee_161/sv6qs0lcdhm3/wish/110997924 Social Loafing ronaldoyee_161 https://padlet.com/ronaldoyee_161/sv6qs0lcdhm3/wish/111209070 occurs when a person does not make lots of contributions when working in a team compared to working individually.
