It is time again for our monthly Q & A
Q: Ben, I respect what you do and admire you as a principal. I had a bad partnership experience in the past. While I continue to move forward with my business, how do I make sure to choose better partners that will help bring success?
A: Thank you for asking me this question and I appreciate the compliment. I have also had problems with partners and I believe I have learned a lot through those experiences. Let’s first define what a partner is and how they relate to your business. According to House Random Dictionary 2016, a partner is “a person associated with another or others as a principal or a contribution of capital in a business or a joint venture usually sharing its risks and profits”. Your business partner can empower your company to grow and develop into a huge success or your partner can create conflict and failure. It is extremely important to choose someone that complements you when selecting a business partner because as your business grows your synergy will become that much more important.
Below are a few qualities I seek in a partner. Hopefully these characteristics help you align yourself with partners that are congruent with you and your company:
- Follow Through: Someone who commits to a task through completion. They take into consideration any deadlines and makes sure that all parties are satisfied with the result.
- Implementer: Someone who is able to take appropriate action steps resulting in the deserved outcome.
- Problem Solver/Solution Oriented: Someone who can identify problematic issues and can help navigate towards a solution.
- Focus: Someone who possesses the ability to stay focused on necessary tasks without becoming side tracked or distracted.
- Accountable: Someone who takes ownership of their work and takes responsibility to make sure their work is being completed.
- Communicator: Someone who has the ability to communicate in a manner that is clear and concise. Someone who is approachable and stays connected with members of their team.
