When a Business Partnership Goes Sideways

What happens when the person sitting across the table from you—your co-founder, family member, investor, or long-time business partner—is no longer aligned with you?

This candid EO member panel goes inside real business partnerships that broke down: the warning signs people missed, the conversations they delayed, and the difficult decisions that followed.

Moderated by Vic Icasas, the session will explore what happened when disagreements around roles, money, ownership, performance, or control became impossible to ignore—and how the people involved ultimately decided whether to repair, restructure, buy out, or exit.

What You’ll Walk Out With
