Scenario

When male business partners clash over leadership styles and masculine authority

My business partner and I are both men but we handle conflict and leadership completely differently - he's direct and aggressive in a way that gets results but makes people uncomfortable, and I try to be more collaborative but he thinks I'm being weak. Our team is caught in the middle and we can't figure out how to model leadership together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two men are struggling to reconcile different approaches to masculine leadership within their shared business.
