Taking Stock Are You Considering a Partnership for Your Business?
The dawning of a new year can inspire us to consider business solutions we might dismiss at other times. One of those solutions might be joining forces with another person, organization or department for the benefit of both.

Good partnerships expand resources, influence, potential and results. But good partnerships don't just happen. For partnerships to work, the partners must be compatible in vision, approach and work processes. They must communicate well with each other. They must know when to stand firm on an issue and when compromise is appropriate. They should share risks and responsibilities, and treat each other fairly. This kind of relationship fosters trust, which in turn, is the foundation of a successful endeavor.

Self Quiz
How Well Do You Manage Your Emotional Reactions at Work?
Automatic, negative responses to people or events often indicate a hypersensitivity that's referred to as "getting your buttons pushed." At work, these emotional reactions can limit your career advancement and cap the level of success you might achieve. Usually these sensitivities have their origins in hurtful childhood experiences, such as repeatedly being criticized, rejected or controlled. Because we're all human, we sometimes take them into the workplace with us. Answer the following two sets of questions to discover how well you manage your emotional reactions at work.

Go to quiz.


Beyond the Box

 

The following questions are designed to broaden perspectives, to open vistas, to widen the lens. There is no one right way to approach them. You can journal about them, talk to friends, create art, ponder them while driving, work out to them--whatever helps you explore "outside the box."

  1. What benefits could a business partnership offer you?

  2. With what business entity would you love to partner? Is there a way you could make that happen??

  3. What really triggers you at work? How could you respond differently?

  4. What of value to you has been harmed by your heated response?
