Med Group Manage J. 1991 Nov-Dec;38(6):36-9.

Abstract

Experiencing teamwork is positive, energizing and motivating, writes Joan Wagner Zinober, Ph.D., M.B.A., in the third article of her series on the management and leadership of people. What is not so well known, however, is the impact of destructive professional relationships on the bottom line. Zinober offers guidelines on how to promote positive working relationships among practice partners.
