Focusing on communication and collaboration within interdisciplinary academic research teams, the author employs grounded practical theory and a systems perspective to explore key structures like trust, humor, and reflexive talk. These elements shape processes such as shared learning and vision, while also revealing dilemmas related to measurement, simplicity versus complexity, and collaborative writing. Utilizing participant observation and qualitative methods, the author develops a systems model that serves as a reflective tool for enhancing communication dynamics in interdisciplinary settings.
