Their approach focuses on assembling balanced teams, improving collaboration, and overall team performance by ensuring that all necessary roles are represented. It specifically focuses on team alone.

What makes C-me different from Belbin?

Faster to learn

Keep things simple

Our colour-coded profiles provide an intuitive and easily digestible visual representation of behavioural styles. We avoid text heavy reports with multiple endless graphs. We offer a more fluid and blended understanding of individual styles.

Flexibility

C-me profiles are designed to be dynamic, reflecting changes over time and in different contexts. Making us more suitable for personal and leadership growth. Belbin roles tend to be more static, focusing on consistent behavioural contributions within teams.

What are the similarities:

  1. Focus on behaviour: Both tools assess behavioural tendencies
  2. Both use preference indicators​ – i.e. we ask people to rate themselves and their own preference.
  3. Team Development – both aim to improve team performance by increasing understanding of individual contributions and interpersonal dynamics.
  4. Actionable Insights: Both provide practical recommendations to enhance collaboration and efficiency within teams.

What are the differences:

It’s simple really. C-me represent data more simply. Our tool is based around four colours that represent four categories of behaviours. We have colour coded behaviours to make it much simpler to remember and translate into any environment.

We present only two bar graphs, instead of multiple iterations of the data. You’ll notice within our wheel that colours are blended, without rigid divisions or numbers. We stripped off numbers, letters or strict categories to reflect that we are each a combination of all four colours. We don’t ask responders to remember numbers and their according categories. Instead, we simply encourage people to learn the four colours of the wheel and what they stand for.

We ask that users simply remember their top two preferred colours. A person’s profile is not stuck to one inflexible category. We do not box people in. We encourage flexibility and growth. This emphasises that none of us are one static category, we flex between colours depending on the circumstances we’re in. We also provide a simple C visual, that displays the colour order of a person’s preferences, as memorable icon to display and show others their colour preferences simply:

What our clients say about us

“Getting busy people working in a client driven commercial environment to free up time for their CPD is pivotal, and where C-me is worth its weight is in how accessible and colloquial it is. It allows us to use it as a shared language (and subsequent understanding) to improving collaboration by understanding each other's preferences.”

Gavin Hooper Learning And Development Specialist, Burges Salmon
