Teaming is an action carried out by radiation oncology departments. In Amy Edmondson’s book, Teaming, there are many concepts that can be applied to radiation oncology. When applied, the concepts help individuals team successfully regardless of the individuals’ roles in the department. During the session, the concept of teaming will be explored with a focus on radiation oncology and dosimetry examples.  Furthermore, there will be a discussion on psychological safety in order to team and learn. Next, the types of boundaries that can make teaming more challenging will be identified along with ways to work across them. Finally, the talk will discuss how to approach failure when it inevitably occurs.

Learner Outcomes:

1. Apply the concept of teaming to radiation oncology
2. Explain workplace psychological safety and how to foster it in the workplace
3. Identify the types of boundaries that can inhibit teaming and how to work across boundaries
4. Discuss how to approach failure and learn from failure when it happens
