Black-box warnings of potential team distress• One or more team members who are: disruptive, frequently absent, apathetic,
dispassionate, sarcastic, hopeless, and/or who express constant emotional/physical exhaustion, report frequent illnesses, or exhibit signs of palliative care “martyrdom”
• Chronic poor attendance at team meetings
• Chronic poor follow-through on assigned tasks
• Team member(s) repeatedly staying beyond normal work hours
• Intra-team conflicts or differences that are consistently unresolved
• “Junior high school” behaviors
• Frequent high clinical workload that precludes nonclinical activities
CAPC, 2012.

right.

Physician Family System
McKegney, 1989.
• unskilled at admitting needs / mistakesUnrealistic expectations
• admitting to pain, depression, uncertainty or abandonment is disloyalDenial
• loyalty more important than collaboration, can’t trust others
• hiding mistakes, perfectionism
Indirect Communication
10
• deny feeling uncertainty or needing guidanceRigidity
• avoid interaction with other disciplines• distrusting of other’s values• Poor collaborative problem-solving skills
Isolation
• guiding / supervising is discounted• physician “grows out” of being “dependent”Indirect power of day-
to-day companions
Physician Family System

Clash of the Hidden Curriculum
Physician hidden curriculumDoctors must be perfect.
Outcome is more important than process.
Hierarchy is necessary.
Uncertainty and complexity are to be avoided.
Medicine takes priority over everything else.
Adapted from Table 1: Browning et al., 2007.

Clash of the Hidden Curriculum
Physicians Palliative teamPerfection Members must be comfortable with their own
imperfection & vulnerability.Outcome Attention to process can be critical to the achievement
of successful outcomes.Hierarchy Hierarchy can hinder optimal learning across
disciplinary lines.Ambiguity Uncertainty, ambiguity and complexity are to be
expected.Medicine Medicine finds its appropriate niche through optimal
collaboration
Adapted from Table 1: Browning et al., 2007.

• Doctors in palliative teams must be…• …perfect, but imperfect and vulnerable.• …ignorant of and attentive to process.• …at the top of a pyramid that can’t
exist.• …avoidant of unavoidable uncertainty
and complexity. • …able to medicalize everything except
the stuff that shouldn’t be.
Clash of the Hidden Curriculum

• Difficulty relaxing
• Presenteeism
• Work-life balance disruption
• Sphere of worry larger than sphere of influence
• Chronic feeling of “not doing enough”
• Difficulty setting limits
• Confuse self-interest with selfishness

professional integrity.Outcome Attention to moral & relational dimensions of the work.
Hierarchy Explicit suspension of hierarchical structure & rules. “Nothing about us without us.”
Ambiguity Inviting reflection, self-awareness and tolerance.
Medicine Structured space for knowledge and insights from all disciplines.
Adapted from Table 1: Browning et al., 2007.

A Shared Leadership Model: Trans-Disciplinary Teams
• Commonly treated as a peer• High knowledge deficit• Highly dependent on the other
members
Appointed leader
• Features of the situation• Individual skills & expertise• Individual ability to influence
Actual situational leadership
Pearce et al., 2009.

Shared Leadership: Situational
Appropriate for:Administrative decisions?
Local team decisions?Clinical decisions?

• Words matter• Are you “ON” or “IN” a palliative
team?• “Call MY social worker”• “MY” or “OUR” team
