Non-engaged partners refers to business entities involved in a partnership that do not actively participate or contribute to the mutual goals or initiatives intended by the alliance.
Example: Consider a scenario where two companies, A and B, enter into a partnership to co-market their products. Company A regularly holds meetings, shares resources, and promotes Company B's products. However, Company B rarely attends meetings, contributes resources, or engages in co-marketing efforts, making it a non-engaged partner. This lack of engagement can strain the partnership and affect its overall success.
Understanding non-engaged partners helps businesses identify and address weak links in their partnerships, enabling more informed decision-making and strategy adjustments to safeguard and promote the success of collaborative endeavors.
