What makes a team
a TEAM?
You know what
I mean!
Like capital C
Collaboration
Where work’s not
just an occupation
but a favorite
destination?
Is it understanding?
Intentional planning?
Grace expanding?
A safe place for landing?
Or is it a magic
personality match
Type As and Bs attach
Balance your energy
with theirs, a synergy
almost wizardly—
you know when to give
when to take
and for heaven’s sake
how to share a mistake
Or is it
not that deep?
Is a team just
the company you keep?
You take turns bringing coffee
-but, randomly
You know how to share a Google Doc
You’re each others’ rock?
Whatever a Team
is supposed to Mean
You know, the dream?
I’ve seen a theme –
There has got to be
laughter on your team!
(and coffee doesn’t hurt either,
so it would seem…)
