Scenario

When friendship complicates business partnerships

My business partner and I have been friends for ten years before starting this company, and now that we're dealing with real financial pressure, we don't know how to disagree professionally without it feeling like a personal betrayal. We keep avoiding difficult business decisions because we're afraid of damaging our friendship.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are trying to preserve one form of relationship at the expense of what their current situation actually requires.
