Initially,we are unaware of the Business Simulation game and the team development, thus the team faceddifficulties in assigning the roles and only member “A” is having the previousexperience which is similar to the Business Game as he did it during his Bachelordegree. Consequently, he is assigned as the team leader and explained how to dothe Business game. Further, as a team leader member “A” showed the leadershipqualities such as effective communication, motivation, delegating, positivity,creativity, commitment, flexibility and responsibility. Moreover, besides teamleader member “A” is also an Implementer according to the Belbin roles and ismore practical, reliable and converting ideas into actions in the Business gamewhich helped our team in finding the vision, mission and objectives of the UMSautomobile company. Further, member “B” as an team worker and completer finisheraccording to the Belbin roles played he is Co-operative, diplomatic, perceptiveand listens to the team members to identify the work required to be done duringall the rounds and also he is keen towards the accuracy of the work so, he isto double check every activity. Meanwhile, “c” was a specialist according tothe Belbin and helped the team by editing, proof reading and also taking theright decisions in HR, Finance and Operational and Marketing during the rounds.
Further, member “D” as a Monitor Evaluator by logically watching, judging andhigh financial skills helped the team to achieve the targets. Additionally, theteam moved rapidly from the performing stage of team development due to thereliability, flexibility, and understanding of the team members. Moving on, bringing back ideas into activityand enthusiastic, I played the role of Resource Investigator while thesituation gets conflicts in taking the decisions (Belbin, 1993). Moreover, as aImplementer organised work that needs to be done during the decisions.Subsequently, I was reluctant in doing the financial reports as I am weak incalculations.
Conversely, in MCI questionnaire I scored high in the personallearning and development which is a major strength of me where I can understandthe financial position of the organisation, thus I focused to improve myfinancial part by reading different materials and by clarifying doubts with theteam members and tutor. However, I also did a role of specialist by editing,referencing and rectifying corrections while doing the Assignment A since I amhaving the good writing skills. Moreover, when the game is progressed there arechanges in strategies due to the conditions, therefore I studied all factorsand supported team members in making the decisions. Therefore, I was incompletein inspiring the team members with the leadership skills which reflects theEmotional questionnaire where I scored least in the leadership skills and otherstyles of learning questionnaire.
