I think the easiest way to describe a Monitor
Evaluator, is as a set of scales. Not necessarily someone to come up with original ideas they are certainly someone who will
need a high IQ. By nature they look for flaws and can sometimes be seen to be quite critical, but if you have a complex problem,
with a lot of data and analysis required, the Monitor Evaluator is the most likely candidate to volunteer for this. Not afraid
to make decisions, they will be seen primarily as objective and not subjective so vital when it comes to making decisions
for the team, as they are less likely to be swayed by subjective reasoning.

Why use an Accredited Belbin® Team Roles
Facilitator?
Using a certified Belbin® team roles facilitator ensures you are using the
very latest tools and methodology, relating to team dynamics and have a Belbin® trained specialist
looking after your team development. We are also able to use e-interplace which is a sophisticated online system that goes
much further than a single profile and allows us to run a broad range of reports looking at the make up of your team and help
you make important choices when it comes to choosing team members. It is also a 360 version which allows you to get feedback
not just from the person taking the profile but also their manager, peers and subordinates. With so much evidence that businesses perform better when their key players focus on their strengths and outsource
their weaknesses, Belbin® Team Roles confirms and explains this perfectly.
We would be happy to discuss how to facilitate your team workshops
using Belbin Team Roles. Our Belbin® trained facilitators work across the UK and further
