Who is the Team Roles poster for?
Team Roles belongs to the Business & Management section rather than to a school year, because business is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning people & organisations can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
When should you use the Team Roles poster?
Balance matters more than talent. Nine specialists in one role make a poor team. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Team Roles belongs on the wall where that business work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
What other posters go with Team Roles?
Change Management, Managing Conflict and Emotional Intelligence sit alongside Team Roles in the Business & Management section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Change ManagementManaging ConflictEmotional Intelligence
Is the Team Roles poster free to download and print?
Yes. Team Roles downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Business & Management section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
What size does the Team Roles poster print at?
Team Roles is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Team Roles loses nothing.Printing guide
