In this episode Sean and Mark revisit their talk to Jo Keeler, managing partner of Belbin, the organisation behind the famous Belbin Team Roles.  They talk about  making work more fun by understanding yourself better, the importance of authenticity, and how it might be as important to know when your role is needed as it is to know what your role is.

Sean and Mark also take the Belbin Team Role Assessment themselves in the hope of learning what they do in a team and just where the magic of their partnership comes from!  Jo then talks them through their results.
