Cameron Herold explains how COOs and CEOs work best as a team: the COO handles tough decisions and brings positive energy while the CEO shines the spotlight on them. Each leader deliberately highlights the other to play to their strengths.

And we need to be able to come in with that good, positive energy for people to follow. And the CEO's job is to be behind the scenes making all the tough decisions and shining the spotlight on the CEO to make them look good. The CEO internally, needs to shine the spotlight on the CEO to say, hey, you know, Cameron needs to make the tough decisions. I need somebody to be doing the tough stuff. Cameron has to be the hard ass because it frees me up to just be able to think and be a good culture. So you're both shining the spotlight on each other.
