Assessing Team Dynamics
In looking at all of the components of building interprofessional practice, the first step is to review how your team functions and determine how it organizes work and knowledge. Basic team skills are essential for the development of cohesive practice between professionals. Start with a review of the stage of development of your team and the team dynamics. This review may have to be done periodically as the team structure changes. Basic team skills could be the root of problems or the barriers preventing growth.
