Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs’ Podcast Are You Getting a Partner or an Employee?
In this episode of Business Brain, we explore the intricacies of unpaid work and the dynamics of partnerships in businesses. We touch upon how Reddit moderators and event volunteers are compensated, discuss the value unpaid interns bring, and the importance of structuring unpaid work arrangements effectively.
Transitioning to partnerships, we delve into the challenges of partners displaying employee-like behaviors, stress the need for clear agreements, and highlight the significance of treating partners equally in terms of compensation and decision-making.
Throughout our conversation, we emphasize open communication, setting expectations early, and utilizing working agreements to prevent conflicts and misunderstandings. We encourage listeners to share their experiences and insights, fostering a dialogue on navigating partnerships and unpaid work arrangements in the business world.
