As a monk, there is no best follower, only a follower that suits your needs at the time.
The Templar gives 12% Spirit Generated as one of final skill choices which is quite useful if you run a Tempest Rush build.
The Scoundrel gives 3% Critical strike as one of the final skill choices, which is most useful for Sweeping Wind: Cyclone as this can up your tornado spawn rate, and just an all round DPS lift.
The Enchantress gives you Force Armor in the second tier which gives you a 5% armor buff or in the final Tier a 3% attack speed skill. The enchantress gives out a lot of crowd control, so if you are struggling to survive, her little bits of control can give you the upperhand.
If you are not Paragon Level 100 yet, it is best to gear your follower with max magic find items, and %exp gain, as you will gain 1/5 of those stats towards your own. Say you get your follower to 100% MF and 35% exp gained, you yourself gain 20% mf and 7% exp gained. Other than those two stats in particular, your follower gets large bonuses from their main stats, eg Vit for all, Dex for Scoundrel, Int for Enchantress and Str for Templar.
