Scenario

When business partnerships test the boundaries of friendship

Three of us started a startup together as friends and now that we're facing real financial pressure, we're discovering we have completely different risk tolerances and ways of handling stress. What used to feel like complementary strengths now feels like we're pulling in opposite directions and we're all too afraid of destroying the friendship to address it directly.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very bonds that created trust now prevent the difficult conversations necessary for survival.
