Relationships Between Social Interactions And Belbin Role Types In Collaborative Agile Teams

Incorporating technologies to support the monitoring, evaluation, and feedback of soft skills attracts great attention in the scientific community. For a team to have a good performance and manage itself, it can be helpful to identify the behavioral characteristics and social interactions established between its members. Here, we explore the relationships between Belbin's behavioral roles, affinity sociograms, and audio interactions collected by the Naira multimodal analysis platform. We present a case study with university students designing with the Lego Serious Play methodology and incorporating agile practices that would stimulate collaborative work. The results are promising, allowing us to define new research hypotheses that will serve as guidelines for future work. The findings indicate that the Naira platform would enable us to recognize behavioral traces for the Social and Action natural roles.
