When business partners disagree about hiring family members for key roles

My business partner wants to hire his nephew for a sales role that would significantly increase our payroll costs, and he's convinced it's a smart investment while I think it's nepotism that could hurt our bottom line. We've been avoiding this conversation because it feels personal but it's affecting our ability to make other financial decisions.
