Strengthening
Your Business Partnership
Did you know that 80% of small businesses
fail because of interpersonal conflict between partners?
Assess the health of your business partnership:
- Is your business the success you and your
partner envisioned?
- Are you and your business partner no longer
sharing enthusiasm and dedication?
- Are you and your business partner spending
too much time in conflict?
If you have answered
yes to one or more of these questions, we suggest that you read
the following:
The most successful business can fail when the relationships
of partners become dysfunctional. Like a marriage, chemistry and
luck are important, but the ingredients that can make or break
either kind of relationship are the interpersonal issues of trust,
equity, fairness, and a clear understanding of what each partner
expects from the other. A lack of any one of these ingredients
can spell trouble for partners, and at worst can lead to business
failure. Yet, as important as these issues are, most partners
don't even discuss them before entering into a relationship.
Whether your business partnership is new or mature, it is never
too late to make the time to discuss and build an Interpersonal
Business Charter. Mediation Services of Maui provides
trained mediators to guide business partners in discussion of
roles, responsibilities, communication guidelines, fairness, and
ownership. A business charter boosts the chances for success by
increasing personal satisfaction and the effectiveness of the
partnership.
Rate is $1000 for 5 sessions.
Five 3-hour sessions at $200 per session.

Family Conferencing
and Victim/Offender Mediation
This program is a collaboration between MSM,
the District Court, the Public Defender's Office and
the Prosecuting Attorney's Office. Appropriate cases include:
theft, minor assault, vandalism and harassment. MSM determines whether
Family Conferencing or Victim/Offender Mediation is appropriate.
Family conferencing allows the families of the victims and
the offenders to come together to make a plan for restitution. Victim/Offender
mediation allows the victim to face the offender in a safe,
structured environment. Both types of mediation are conducive to
healing, restoration of wrong doing, and lowering recidivism rate
for further offenses.
Fees vary based on income.

Meeting Facilitation
MSM maintains a trained pool of facilitators
who help to minimize contention and promote group consensus. Non-profit
agencies, businesses, and community groups request this service
for conceptualizing and planning for the future.
Rate is $175/ hour.

Communication/Conflict
Resolution Training
MSM provides training for businesses
and agencies. This training has been provided to County and State
agencies, Americorp volunteers, non-profit agencies and to new recruits
of the Maui Police Department. The program promotes harmony in the
workplace by providing valuable education to working groups who
deliver services to the community.
