Doody Review: 5 Stars, 100/100 This is an excellent guidebook for healthcare professionals to use to hone their teamwork and leadership skills.

This is a great tool for all professionals! -- Cynthia Cummings, RN, MSN, EdD, CHSE, University of North Florida Brooks College of Health

[T]his book is insightful; practical in its content and design; and extremely easy to read and navigate.

This review was originally published in Journal of Research in Interprofessional Practice and Education (JRIPE www.jripe.org). Vol 6.1, 2016.

In Teamwork, Leadership and Communication: Collaboration Basics
for Health Professionals, everything important comes in threes: written
by three expert authors, the book focuses on three competency
domains with three levels of organization where these competencies can be applied; it
also has three chapters, one for each competency, with three case vignettes included in
each chapter. As the rule of three states “omne trium perfectum”: everything that comes
in threes is perfect.

Teamwork, Leadership and Communication: Collaboration Basics for Health
Professionals is a practical book for students of healthcare, practicing professionals,
and senior leaders and administrators who support collaborative environments. With
three solid chapters focused on three core competency domains, the true value of the
book is that on top of providing a thorough introduction to what collaboration means
in the real world of healthcare, why and when we need it, it also offers practical guidance
on how to think about, design, and assess collaborative activities.

The introduction sets the stage for the most practical aspect of the book: a framework
with three competency domains on one side and three levels where those competencies
can be applied on the other. The three competency domains make up the
title of the book: teamwork, leadership, and communication. Note, the initials of
these words also make up the abbreviation TLC—tender loving care—which, as the
authors point out, is just as needed among group members as it is among family
members. The authors invite us to consider these competencies (TLC) at three levels:
interpersonal, organizational, and systemic. The result is a practical matrix that
can be valuable in different contexts.

The chapter on teamwork sheds light on what makes the combined action of a
group of people most effective: mastering the right attitude toward group work,
addressing issues of liability, establishing rapport and building trust, and harnessing
the most empowering features of group dynamics (size, composition, structure, context,
development).

The chapter on leadership drives the focus to shared leadership. The authors
underline what they call a paradox: leadership in a collaborative setting is a shared
skill. While it may not constitute a paradox, shared leadership (as opposed to traditional
hierarchy) makes much more sense in a truly collaborative setting—one that calls for
the enactment of shared purposes, participatory decision-making, and the
management of conflicts within a shared code of ethics.

The chapter on communication is a sophisticated discussion about what communication
entails in a group setting and how it can shape the patterns of association
and productive work. Here the authors expand on the contrast between dyadic and
small group interactions, the importance of the non-verbal, active listening, asynchronous
and informal communication, the role of self-awareness, and an edifying
array of communication tools that groups can use depending on their needs.
The final chapter closes with how to weave a tapestry of collaboration. The visible
threads in such a fabric, the authors remind us, are what groups of professionals do
every day and the outcomes they achieve. The hidden or guiding threads with which
the fabric is woven are the competencies of the participants.

There are additional positive features in this book. One is that each chapter begins
by asking the reader to imagine an ideal setting for collaboration. These starting
images prime the reader’s mind with a high standard, while the rest of the chapter
shows how to work toward that standard. Each chapter encourages readers to engage,
reflect, and think about what they have just read through vignettes, questions, and
exercises. Another useful feature is the storm cloud graphics highlighting various
comments about collaboration. Mostly negative, these comments reflect the cloudy
days of collaborative work and the negative feelings and resistance that can be part of
group work. The image is appropriate, for what comes after the clouds? A blue sky as
beautiful as ever. Not only can students of collaborative care acquire positive ground
for group work, they can also master how to steer their work toward clearer skies.

To close with the rule of three: this book is insightful; practical in its content and
design; and extremely easy to read and navigate. The book goes far toward showing
that collaboration is an acquired skill and offers real help to all students of group
work who wish to develop the critically considered concepts of teamwork, leadership,
and communication.
