Ep 30 - CEO of Belbin - Jo Keeler

What makes a successful team?How do we learn to play to our strengths within a team dynamic?Where do our weaknesses lie in teamwork and how can we protect against them? How do Belbin behavioural assessments improve the collective intelligence and performance of a team?These are all important questions that I get to explore with Jo Keeler, the CEO of Belbin! We sat down after their conference just outside of Cambridge in July 2024 and had a fascinating conversation. I got to ask Jo about the origin and development of Belbin assessments, how hundreds of organisations like the BBC, UN, Legal and General, Caravela Coffee and many others have used Belbin to develop the effectiveness of their teams! We use Belbin behavioural assessments as a coaching tool in our work with corporate teams and find it a great way to facilitate impactful conversation and increase the awareness of each team member and the team as a whole. Through using these reports in a series of workshops, 1-1 coaching sessions and group discussions, we see an increase in team cohesion and overall results! I’m so glad I got to attend their conference, meet their team and chat with Jo! Dad and I reflect afterwards on the impact of Belbin and other assessment tools to make an impact on organisations!
