Instead, the author urges leaders to provide the following to create accountability and set employees up for success: 1) clear expectations around the desired outcome, the desired approach to achieving the outcome, and how success will be measured (2), the skills and resources needed to meet expectations, 3) clear, measurable targets with associated milestones, 4) open and ongoing feedback, and 5) clear consequences for success or failure. doi:10.1037/a0021340, Smither, J.

In short, there was a lack of a shared mental model or clarity around what each group does and thinks (e.g., how long it takes to do certain tasks, the effect of changes to the patient plan) and awareness of how the situation impacts each group. doi:10.4324/9781315243092-22, Bedwell, W.

PMID: 28854090. In fact, advancements in medicine and the complex regulatory and economic factors affecting healthcare necessitate the use of multidisciplinary teams across the clinical, research, and administrative sectors of health systems. American philosopher, psychologist, and leader in early educational reform John Dewey underscored that while our experiences are an integral part to learning, we truly learn or learn more deeply from reflecting on that experience (Rodgers, 2002). The authors assert it is the latter, conflict process, which directly influences performance; findings suggest that when conflict states are controlled, processes used to manage conflict predicted more variance in team outcomes than did the states themselves. doi:10.1108/LODJ-08-2011-0073.

Because the output of this team directly influenced the research activities and financial outcomes of the institution, expectations for timely and high-quality work were high. We conclude by presenting illustrative case studies exemplifying five of the most common teamwork and evidence-based approaches to address these challenges. doi:10.1016/j.socscimed.2018.02.020, Brown, J., Lewis, L., Ellis, K., Stewart, M., Freeman, T.

According to Emanuele and Koetter (2007), healthcare organizations are constantly facing the challenge of improving quality of care while reducing overall costs. 202, 99107. A meta-analysis. Therefore, we encourage future research to look beyond the methodologies traditionally used in teams research and to seek underutilized approaches that may be able to further advance our understanding of multidisciplinary teams in healthcare (e.g., integrated qualitative and quantitative research paradigms, participatory action research (PAR); Baum et al., 2006; Paoletti et al., 2021).
