Summary
An ultimate outcome of leading a team well and fostering real collaboration is the establishment of a positive team culture. A positive team culture is marked by core values and norms of behavior that value collaboration, top performance, shared goals, and mutual support. Healthcare teams with a positive culture consistently produce better results for their members and the patients they serve. Members of such teams are less likely to experience burnout. Strategies that foster a positive team culture and strategies that undermine a positive team culture, that is, “dos” and “don’ts,” are identified and explained in this chapter. The risk of “groupthink” that highly cohesive teams may experience is real and must be avoided. The pandemic has put a premium on teams’ ability to quickly establish and maintain a positive culture.
