Opportunity, The co-CEO model can actually work

There are times when the benefits of shared leadership can outweigh its risks.
A leadership dyad can enable two people to lead in a unique, constructive way and, in doing so, surpass what could be accomplished individually.
When two people are prepared to critically challenge and support each other, it can yield more creative and better-quality strategic solutions.

Opportunity, Co-leadership can enable a collaborative culture

Having a healthy, high performing co-leadership structure sets an example to the rest of the organisation on how to successfully share responsibilities and work with one another.

Opportunity, Combining different styles can result in useful complementarity

Each leader has a natural propensity to lead in a certain way so combining different styles can result in useful complementarity.
Think of good cop/bad cop, optimist/pessimist, holistic/atomistic thinking and other common leadership dualities.

Alert, Coaching for co-leadership

For a co-leadership structure to work, executive coaching is often needed.
Constant monitoring can ensure that the co-leadership runs smoothly.
Left to their own devices, the two leaders may devolve into separate worlds.
