Am I Part of the Team

There may be no I in Team,
But there is one in Co-operation and another in Ideas. 
A team without Co-operation and fresh out of Ideas may
Soon be beat.

There may be no L in in Team,
But a Leader sure has one.
A Team without a leader will be hard pressed to stay 
Together.

There may be no O in Team,
But options has one.
A team without options may not be around
For long.

There may be no D in Team,
But there is in Direction.
A team without Direction, will not find it easy
To stay focussed. 

There may be no P in team,
But Purpose is not lacking one. 
A Team without purpose,
May not be of much use.

A team without any Co-operation and out of Ideas,
Leaderless, without Options
And lacking both Direction and Purpose,
Doesn't spell success to me.
