An organising framework for team learning research, synthesising decades of work to map the field's key constructs, mechanisms, and boundary conditions. Identifies psychological safety as a central enabler of team learning across contexts and points to gaps including cross-cultural variation, multilevel dynamics, and the role of technology.
