The Discovery of Interprofessional Team Learning - in an Academic Health Care Organization

The two broad themes of this book reflect team-learning characteristics and activities: First, the nature of the team within an aspiring learning organization and second, the nature of team learning activities focusing on the use of knowledge. These themes are not isolated, but rather are intermingled and represent the learning and functioning of this single well-established interprofessional healthcare team. This book supports the key point, the role of leaders is crucial in the outcome of teams learning to work together. There are recommendations for healthcare organizations moving towards becoming learning organizations.
