Abstract

This article discusses the concept of co-leadership and provides strategies for succeeding in this role. It acknowledges that while co-leadership can lead to better performance and personal resilience, it can also result in unhealthy competition and organizational misalignment. The strategies suggested include sharing personal experiences, asking for advice, developing a shared ambition, clarifying responsibilities, establishing a process for resolving disagreements, seeking counsel from trusted mentors, and proactively supporting one's co-leader. The article emphasizes the importance of integrity and skill in navigating co-leadership roles. [Extracted from the article]
