How Do You Know "All is Not Well" In Business Relations

When do you say the relationship you are in good or bad? Good is sometimes easily understood but what about the bad ones! Let us have a look at the few symptoms that can help you clear out your misconception that your relationship is like “All is Well”

Firstly people who used to talk to you so much for hours together stop talking suddenly and they stop being with you. People don’t bother about you and many a times they don’t show concern about your worries.

The two in relation thoughts don’t match, the older thoughts and memories of both don’t match. In case of business you talk about principles on which you started your venture and the way things were managed and the drastic change that has taken place in the way people deal with each other, change in the thoughts and principles as well.

It is said Pasture is always greener anywhere else. Hence you start either comparing or viewing the person/partner in front of you being lower over other in many aspects. Questions come up like when he can do it why not you? & similar questions wherein there is lack of confidence.

As said when relationships go bad, the very first thing that stops is the talks. The communication goes very formal in business relations along with the same some tense unemotional and vague feelings pop in. No one shares the dream, thoughts now.

Your business partner seems to take it upon herself to ‘share’ the business struggles with everyone outside the business. You hear things second hand about problems your company is having. Of course, everyone means well, but who gave them permission to comment or butt in anyway?

You realize that what was once personal and confidential has become public knowledge, at least, to family and or friends that you preferred stayed out of your business.[/i][/i]

Disagreements about spending money & decision making among business partners

For example, one partner wants to 'grow the business' by reinvesting profits, buying a building or expanding, while the other wants to 'take money out of the business.

Partners don’t work as team and the spirit of unity is all gone leaving no imprints

There are degrees of importance that are placed on relationships in different countries. Contracts are a vital part of the business relationship, and business is conducted based on third-party professional contacts.

In countries such as China and Brazil, the relationship is essential for the long-term success of your venture. The relationship takes on an importance and is needed to deal with the business environment or culture of the country. The contract may not embody or provide for certain difficulties or occurrences.

Because business is intertwined with relationships and business is often done between family and friends, if something goes wrong, or challenges and obstacles can’t be overcome, the friendship may fail and terminate.

The opposite is also true. If a relationship fails for personal reasons, the business may be jeopardized. This is very much the case in countries such as China and Brazil.

Doing business in cultures where relationships are essential is much more cumbersome, costly and time consuming than doing business based on contractual relationships. In order to be successful in the global business environment, you must understand the nature of the business culture where you are working, and adapt to that culture to some degree. Constructing the right kind of bridge to those cultures with the necessary employees or consultants to navigate the relationships is essential.

When you really feel that you need to improve your relations since there lies good in it. To achieve this objective you need to communicate your thoughts and points you feel didn’t satisfy the business and get on common platform soon. Communication is the key to good relations this is what I really mean, no matter even if you fight at least all the points get cleared and one can dream of good business ahead.
