安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
Many friends, great and good men and women, Mrs. Carnegie and I are favored to know, but not one whit shall these ever change our joint love for the "boys." For to my infinite delight her heart goes out to them as does mine. She it was who christened our new New York home with the first Veteran dinner. "The partners first" was her word. It was no mere idle form when they elected Mrs. Carnegie the first honorary member, and our daughter the second. Their place in our hearts is secure. Although I was the senior, still we were "boys together." Perfect trust and common aims, not for self only, but for each other, and deep affection, moulded us into a brotherhood. We were friends first and partners afterwards. Forty-three out of forty-five partners are thus bound together for life.

白话
卡内基说,他和妻子虽然认识很多了不起的朋友,但对早年一起打拼的“兄弟们”的感情一点不会变。妻子甚至提议在新家先请这些老伙伴吃饭,还让他们成为荣誉会员。为什么这么看重?因为大家彼此完全信任、目标一致,不只为自己,也为对方,感情很深,先做朋友后做合伙人。四十五个合伙人里有四十三个一辈子绑在一起。这说明,生意伙伴若能先建立兄弟般的情谊,合作会更牢靠。做法是:把共同目标和相互信任放在利益前面,长期维护关系。
上下文

你在合作中,是否先把对方当朋友,再谈利益?
