Business Partnerships
Are you already in a partnership?
Business partnerships like marriage, involve issues of money, balance of power and workload, disagreement and compromise. They can also be richly rewarding. It takes hard work to make partnerships successful for the long-haul, as well as a deep understanding and appreciation of your partner’s vision, goals and differences.
Are you potentially ignoring red flags of a failing business partnership? Do you recognize any of these symptoms?
- You’re spending less time operating your business because you are diverted by problems in your working relationship
- You find that your resentment is building over your partners lack of performance
- You are barely communicating
- You are disagreeing more on the direction of the company, spending or hiring
