'A team is not a bunch of people with job titles, but a congregation of individuals, each of whom has a role which is understood by other members. Members of a team seek out certain roles and they perform most effectively in the ones that are most natural to them.'
The nine Belbin roles are simple, familiar, and immediately useful in understanding how projects (and other social enterprises) work. Or if you haven't heard of them before, they are wonderfully satisfying as you realise 'ah, of course, that's what's happening on this project'.
