Team Work and The Belbin Test
Team working is again, a essential and important part of an individuals career. Whether it's formal or informal, group work is a powerful factor in terms of motivation, and improvement of skills.
“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success-Henry Ford”
Not everything in life could be done individually, and hence, working with people around you in a understandable manner in the only effective way in which you could reach success with the help of those around you. Finding the right people or the right method seems hard if it's not done properly, on the other hand if properly observed, the correct people are always available. Most students have problems with team work, but it could be fixed by taking the Belbin test. The Belbin test determines a persons charter and roles in terms of team working and the below picture explains it in a more deep manner.

Taking the test, I obtained the highest results for " Coordinator" and I will have to agree with the fact that I am mature, confident and a good chairperson, my second and third highest scores were "resource investigator and team worker", the results of the rest were fairly true and it does help identify what group an individual belongs in.
In order to reach success, teams, group work and unity is needed. It's nothing to hate, but something to work on.
Other than the Belbin test there are a few other team working tests (including the link below) that could help identify and improve your team working skills.
