Elevate your impact in health care.

The significance of collaboration and teamwork among health care professionals cannot be overstated. By fostering a culture of collaboration, health care workers can tap into a collective wealth of knowledge, skills, and perspectives that ultimately enhance their capacity to provide comprehensive care for the diverse communities that they serve.

Harvard Online offers two health care courses that will help you implement a strategy of organizational teamwork and deliver high-quality care to all:

Innovations in Teamwork for Health Care

Health care is a team effort. In Innovations in Teamwork for Health Care, leaders in the field of organizational behavior and teamwork, Amy Edmondson and Michaela Kerrissey, share their latest research and present their concept of "teaming" as it relates to the health care and life science industries. In this course, you will examine the theory of teaming – where individuals join together to lend their expertise – to appreciate what enables effective teamwork and why teamwork fails; articulate the importance of psychological safety and a joint problem-solving orientation; understand the particular needs of time-limited teams; and rethink the role of hierarchy and leadership in the context of teaming.

Applications for the inaugural cohort close Monday, September 11 at 11:59 PM ET!

You'll learn how to harness and analyze data, how to visualize and communicate the results, and how to use feedback from stakeholders to begin closing the gap.
