Introduction
Group presentation is the free group or quotient group and is subjected to various
relations. In this study I will define the ways of effective group presentation and
which factors affect or enhance the group peoples to make the presentation
successful. I will reflect the theories needed in group presentation in a valid manner
and evaluate the effectiveness in future to give a better presentation.

Main body
The group presentation is just a condition where we have to work with various
peoples, and accept their opinions and views to make the presentation successful. I
think that if we work collectively the team communication increases, knowledge
become varied and the innovation level of the presentation is high. The participation
of each and every member is important and effective communication can build
relationship and bonding between group members and they can perform in a good
team work (Belbin.com, 2019)
According to my knowledge there are four types of presentation which can be
applied in a group presentation, they are informative speeches, demonstrative
speeches, persuasive speeches and inspirational speeches. The informative
presentations are brief and it to the exact point, it is used to make a transparent and
clear presentation so the spectators can understand the type of the instructional
presentations are to direct something appropriately. I will use the informative
presentation in my group presentation as it will help in making. The theories which
will apply in making the group presentation and it will make the presentation more
effective. The theory is Belbin theory as it is more effective divided their work in nine
team roles in scrutinising a team work and the make the team; divide their work
equally to complete their work in time.
Belbin theory was developed by Dr Meredith Belbin who studied the factors of team
work for years and developed this theory so that we can apply it in any spheres of
life to make out work easier and systematic. The team role generally refers to the
distribution of work among the expertise so that they can achieve their target .He
have classified the theory according to the interrelation between team members
behaviours and quality and have divided their work in nine team roles.
The nine team roles are the shaper, implementer, resource investigator, team
worker, coordinator, plant, monitor evaluator, specialist and the finisher. The
resource investigator finds new innovative ideas to apply for the better performance
of the team. The teamwork provides the connection between the team members and
building up their relationships to make their work fruitful. I will do the same in making

my relationships in the team stand and make the presentation well and successful.
The coordinator focuses mainly in achieving the goals and objectives of the team.
We can by the help of the coordinator can make the team members focus on our
goals and make it achieve in a much better way. In case of the Belbin theory it will
help in our group presentation and make every one work expertly in their particular
positions.
The Plant solves the problems if there have been any crises and the monitor
evaluator provides logical thinking to their subjects and gives impartial solutions and
each one of them can solve thro problems and issue to work more effectively in the
team. The specialist brings expert knowledge to their team. The shaper keeps the
positive attitude going in the team and shapes the outlook of their team members.
The implementer applies strategies to the team work and we should apply the
strategies to make the presentation more effective. Lastly comes the finisher which
scrutinises the work of any errors sand keep a quality control in their work
processes.
This techniques will be applied in the our team development and it make our
presentation more effective and it will also help in making the presentation or group
work more scrutinise and effective. We will also apply the Belbin theory and the
informative speeches to make our presentation effective. The presentation will be
done in good communicative way and in a team work so that the hard work is
reflected in the teamwork.

Conclusion
The study has reflected the effectiveness of team work in making their group
presentation work and the therefore the application of types of group presentations
and after their presentation they will also apply the Belbin theory to mark the
betterment of presentation.
