There are various dynamics that are created when working in team and collaborating to achieve a single goal; it is for reasons of cause to assign roles and tasks, in order to scale the work coordination structure.
The symbiosis between the two parties proceeds in a clear and cooperative collaboration, with the aim of giving a decisive imprint of educational/work training learning.
