Question 

How can this affect teamwork in occupational therapy: Johnson (2017) recognizes numerous obstacles associated with collaborative teams of professionals in healthcare. The problems include poor communication, inflexible roles, poor performance, inconsistent communication styles, poor team norms, power imbalances, and role conflicts. Johnson emphasizes that more than merely assignment to a work team is needed to ensure successful cooperation. Members of various professional cohorts may hesitate to exchange knowledge and possess diverse attitudes toward collaborative efforts. Although there have been enhancement requests, fruitful collaboration still needs to be completed. Johnson further highlights that the attributes of the healthcare system can impede efficient cooperation, and limited data suggests that training can enhance the measurable results of healthcare teams. Johnson (2017) indicates that various obstacles often hinder the effectiveness of collaborative healthcare teams.
