Abstract
An indepth study conducted on units treating renal disease and cancer clinics determined that multidisciplinary teams are relatively commonplace in these areas. Developing four team organizational structures — sequential, primary, nucleus and dynamic — the authors hypothesize that each varies on a continuum in terms of how highly structured they are. The framework suggests that the ideology of equal participation on the team is the most difficult to sustain, and that difficulties typically arise as organization requirements become more complex. More research seems to be indicated to develop a comprehensive organizational framework, and the probable effect of organizational form on team performance. One of the key issues addressed is team leadership.
