70: Breaking up with a Business Partner, Change & Growth with Amy Balliett Part 2

Change is inevitable and sometimes scary, but always, change happens for a reason.

Difficult conversations only get more difficult when they aren’t had and delayed conflict puts everyone, and your business, at risk. Sometimes the conversation you are afraid to have is not only a necessary one, but one that will lead to the greatest kind of change taking you places you never thought you’d go.

Amy Balliet of Killer Visual Strategies (formerly Killer Infographics) shares how she grew a company, shifted with a purpose and ‘exited’ her business partner during a critical time for the business. What went right, what went wrong, and the lessons that she learned along the way. Looking back her intuitive reflection can help us all with not only breaking up respectfully but in shifting directions with a purpose.
