Five colleagues in human resources $($HR$)$ were tasked with reviewing options for employee benefits, researching less costly alternatives, and making recommendations to the HR director.

This team has spent a month researching and reporting back. The group is finally in the last stages of preparing a recommendation report for the director. The process went smoothly and worked well. In general, the team had a strong balance of expertise, which allowed each member to contribute equally and valuably. At the team$$s final review meeting, Montana stepped up to assign parts for the final proofread; Cherice made certain that everyone$$s ideas were heard; Murphy stepped in with a comment that eased tension when there were slight disagreements; Perry kept minutes and compiled the final revisions; and Phoenix, as always, wanted to talk about the weekend.

Consider the following team roles, and then answer the following questions
