ABSTRACT
We have referred to interprofessional teamworking as a multicultural experience. A study (Rogers, 1994) on effective multicultural working suggested an integrative framework that synthesises a number of attitudes, characteristics and behaviours that team members in the case studies revealed. Working across cultures requires:
■ Personal integration: The capacity to self-reflect, to accept feedback, to develop selfawareness, leading to a real desire to change and grow.
