Today is #WorldOzoneDay under the theme “Advancing climate action”. The @UN Montreal Protocol has united the world to phase out ozone-depleting substances, putting the ozone layer on the path to recovery & protecting all life on Earth.

Senior leadership teams are force multipliers: effectiveness radiates from the top team throughout an organisation. Yet in a study by @CCLdotORG, two-thirds of the senior executives felt their top team was ineffective & only 20% felt that their team was high performing. Research by @BainandCompany identified five behaviour traits that the most effective top teams have in common. These traits are collective - they characterise the behaviours of the team as a whole, not those of its individual members: 1) Direction: the team collectively sets purpose, vision & strategy 2) Discipline: everyone understands the strategies, objectives & deliverables of their peers so they can work together interdependently 3) Drive: the team prepares carefully, debates constructively & is industrious & resilient over the long term 4) Dynamism: they treat change as constant & positive 5) Collaboration: the team creates the psychological safety needed to give and take feedback, listen actively, brainstorm, solve problems & hold themselves accountable: hbr.org/2024/09/teamwork-at-….

Taking a new look at Hba1c! Health Behaviours Are 1mproved by Collaboration.. @tmpbrock calling for increasing the sweetness of #teamwork 🍭 @PCDSAus’s Conference 2024 #Collaboration #teamwork #cpc4health #bettertogether #multidisciplinaryteam

“Sharing by default” is an emerging @AuDigitalHealth philosophy that could also improve the #health professions #education sector. Shall we start by tagging & sharing our single discipline teaching videos within @UniMelbMDHS? I bet there is such gold there! #BetterTogether

Interprofessional collaboration should be standard practice to ensure high quality health services, says a new FIP policy statement published today. Recommendations to governments, academia & #pharmacists are set out in the policy, accessible here 👉fip.org/file/6041

Expanding the pool of #collaboration researchers by welcoming a fantastic new addition - @David_Steeb! If the 1st presentation to some of his fellow @MonashPharm & @UniMelbMDHS #health #education PhD students is a predictor - there’s some great work ahead. #WatchThisSpace

Fireside chat with @WalterEppich - Chyonne Kreltszheim, @marinambgg, & Jonas Nordquist discuss how #spaces, #people, & #talk can better support collaborative teaching teams. We can & we must facilitate change! #BetterTogetther

Top tip -> a skilled researcher who references both @Freakonomics and @GreysABC in the first minute of their keynote is a winner! Can’t wait to learn more from @marinambgg of @BusEcoNews about gendered emotions & social movements!

Chyonne Kreltszheim sees NOT being naturally #collaborative as a gift, because she’s had to study & practice it purposefully. Suspect many health professionals may feel similarly. How can we learn this #superpower? #BetterTogether

Working in universities is wacky. So for @SocSciWeek we have @jillblackmore1 talking about the "Stupidity Paradox of Working in Universities" with us on The Peer Revue. It's an improv show where you'll laugh and learn! socialsciencesweek.org.au/ev…

Great opening session of the @CPC4health applying design thinking to teamwork symposium @UniMelbMDHS. #collaboration #bettertogether

What happens when the AV fails & you can’t print handouts for your A.I. workshop? You think, “that’s what teachers deal with every day,” & you find a way! Well done, @KayleyLyons, @MakVivienne, & Vivian Romero for showing that #teamwork makes the dream work! #BetterTogether

Starting out with the @BBCNews’ greeting of “fab and glam, darling!” Dr Jonas Nordquist of the @karolinskainst challenges us to consider how we design spaces that better facilitate #collaboration in #health & #education.

It’s EduYak day! That means #health professions #educators are gathering to talk about things that matter in our #community. Today’s topic is tough but important -> reframing conflict from unproductive to productive tension. We are respectfully naming our 🐘🐘🐘#BetterTogether

Long term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution is linked to a higher risk of infertility in men, whereas road traffic noise is linked to a higher risk of infertility in women over 35, finds this study bmj.com/content/386/bmj-2024…

Really thought-provoking keynote by mid-career #FIP2024 Distinguished Pharmaceutical Education Award winner @lerisruq about the complexity of using race as a proxy for health conditions #wholepersoncare #socialdeterminantsofhealth

Come see what the @FIP_AcPS Scholarship in Pharmacy Education Workgroup has been up to! @khbohan and I are waiting to talk to you at poster APS-090. #FIP2024

How big was my @CPC4health smile when the messages of the Minister of Health of South Africa & Research Lead at Ministry of Health for New Zealand were #collaboration #forward? #Teamwork is a #power #skill for better health care! #FIP2024 😀😍😃

The inspiring @msletsike extends the famous words of @NelsonMandela to close out #FIP2024. A packed house cheered that “health cannot be a question of income; it is a fundamental human right.” And ALL people deserve this! ❤️🌈🌍
