Circling the wagons

Posted by T. on April 30, 2004

What is meant by the phrase "circling the wagons"? A senior member of the firm where I work and I have a very friendly, professional working relationship, I thought, until someone made the statement that we were just circling the wagons.

What does that mean!?
