Abstract

Abstract: Long-term and short-term efficiency and effectiveness of a working team depend on an optimal Roles distribution within it. Therefore, having a model which enables such corresponding distribution is of a high interest to any quality manager. Two main concepts, the Roles concept of Adizes and Working styles concept of Julie Hay, are involved to create an integral model with an original approach to the Roles distribution in any working team. The greatest advantage of this model is that it is predictive instead of experiential: it makes it possible to make a corresponding Roles distribution in advance within the team, without previously monitoring the activities of the potential team members. A discussion to the relation between the possible outcomes and the level of prediction is given.
