Working Together With Your Friends....???

Isn't it great having friends?

What would we do without them?

But have you ever worked with friends – on a regular basis?

There are many opinions about this, some are pro and some are con.

making friends while work

Most of us have various circles of friends.

• We have our family which can also be considered as the first or the inner friend circle.

• Then there friends from the neighborhood.

• Friends from work .

• Friends from school.

• Friends who we know through our children.

• and of course we can't forget our virtual friends. 

Can working with friends improve productivity in the office or business environment?  Most studies say "yes"

Here are a few questions that you should ask each other before committing to working together:

• How will you react to suddenly being together all the time?  

• How will your roles change?

• Who will be "in charge?"

• How will you resolve conflict?

• Will you be able to separate your personal and business relationships?

I have friends who have been working together for years, successfully, they are also husband and wife and parents to two beautiful children.
