Each of my facilitators are required to complete 2 peer-peer evaluations each quarter, provide the feedback to the peer, and then send me a copy of the evaluation. I then review the feedback and discuss with the facilitator at their next regular 1-1 meeting. The evaluator also is asked what they learned and consider doing differently based on the observation. This has worked quite well for the past 2 years. We use Peer-Peer Evaluations as part of the instructor evaluation process.

Especially because we often get into ruts of behavior and we continue to use those styles until something blows up or we are forced to change. One technique I have always enjoyed is having a trusted co-facilitator in the room, whos only responsibility is to give you real time feedback on your program. I have develop a series of non-verbal cues varying from Preaching Talking to much Audience is bored Ask more questions etc... while presenting the co-facilitator offers feedback I can take it or leave it. Yet having someone in the roon who's only job is to help you be your best is a great tool. trainer program enhancement in real-time is challenging.
