Building Teams from the Bottom UP!?

The role of multidisciplinary teams in healthcare  is to ensure that clients or patients receive personalized healthcare services that utilizes a holistic health lens. During my attendance at the 2015 ASAC (Administrative Sciences Association of Canada) conference, a talk regarding team work in the healthcare context was delivered. One specific image caught my attention! Although I was unable to capture the image on time, I drew up a similar cartoon (above)... 

The visual prompts the following questions...
" if they don't learn together, how can one expect them to work together..." 

The way we view multidisciplinary care is often colored by our experiences. Personally, I value the opportunities that were offered to me. Working and learning with professionals from such diverse backgrounds gave me an amazing opportunity to further mold my team competencies. 
Do you believe that learning together cultivates an environment of mutual respect and importance for each other's profession? I think so! What do you think?
