Co-CEO Model for Product Companies

I am not a specialist in the are of analysing which model works best for a company. Yet, based on my experience in Product Development Companies, I have few thoughts around co-CEO Model. Here it goes.

If you are passionate about products, then you can develop something exceptional, innovative & path breaking.

If you are passionate about relationship building & selling, then you can easily make your way thru customers.

Having said above 2 points, I believe A Product Development Company needs an optimized combination of above two qualities at the top. Usually, it's difficult for one person to be best at these two parameters. Infact these two characteristics often don't go hand-in-hand. Hence, why not 2 people at the top? One focusing on Development of Product & the other Evangelizing the Product with customers!!!
