Interprofessional Collaboration and Health Disparities in Public Health Interventions: An Exploratory Leadership Framework
Abstract
Addressing complex and systemic problems like health disparities require interdisciplinary, translational, and team-based approaches that take account of the social, cultural, economic, and environmental factors contributing to the persistence of such problems. By crossing disciplinary boundaries, researchers and stakeholders can integrate multiple perspectives into comprehensive solutions that can be translated into practice with a higher likelihood of reducing health disparities. Successful interdisciplinary collaboration hinges upon effective communication and leadership practices. In centering communication as a foundation for successful interdisciplinary and translational activities, this chapter considers the ways in which leadership—enacted through the design of strategies, processes, messages, and structures—may enable collaborative research efforts that productively address health disparities. The exploratory framework introduced in this chapter can help to inform the design of future initiatives for addressing health disparities across disciplines and with communities.
