A structured workshop on developing the right partner
Getting into business with a partner can be a practical road to implementing your business vision. The idea of sharing the load and having someone with complementary skills and resources is comforting, especially for first-time entrants. Business partnerships, like marriages, call for commitment, thoughtfulness, and awareness. However, most partnerships fail because of disagreements between partners who did not sufficiently understand each other, which could have been avoided through applying the tools to develop the right partnership.
Therefore, the critical query is how do you develop the right partner?
In this workshop, you will:
• Learn about the tools and resources you need to know in choosing the right business partner
• Understand the basics of important documents such as contract information, division of labor and exit strategies
