When business partners navigate conflicting family obligations and professional autonomy

My business partner comes from a traditional Chinese family and I'm seeing how the pressure to honor his parents' expectations about our company direction is creating real tension between us, especially when those expectations conflict with decisions we've made together as equal partners.
