Phong Nguyen - The Coordinator

My proposed and accepted role in our group is the coordinator.  The two choices I picked were most likely to be was the specialist or the coordinator.  Our team needed a management type more than a researching type because of the composition of our team. The purpose of the coordinator is to assign jobs, clarifies decisions, and helps his members focus on their task assigned.  Although within Belbin’s theory of coordinator he states that a coordinator is generally manipulative, and will delegate all the work, and only doing the delegating.  Although he states that not all theories are correct that is why it is only a theory not a fact.  With my teammates I think I will be a good coordinator because I will do my fair share of the work along with helping them stay on top of their task.  I feel confident I can do complete this role’s attributes easily because it is within my character to assist leading a project.  I feel confident I will lead my team to success through keeping them on track.

  1. The assignment sheet asks for you to research group roles beyond Belbin's theory, which I provided for you. All of you use Belbin, but it would be nice to see that you've done further research beyond what was given in class to reflect on your roles.
