English term

setting each other up

English to Portuguese Other Other
PersonalIy, if I had to choose a sports team analogy, I think I would pick volIeybalI-where everybody gets to serve and play every position even if they are better at some than others. In volIeyball success depends on setting each other up and on how well they cover for each other. But when have you ever heard of volleyball used as an analogy for work teams?
