Abstract
This chapter is about artists and managers working in partnership as executive leaders in arts organizations. This dual structure has become common in many organizational contexts: cultural, nonprofit, professional partnerships, banks and many entrepreneurial start-ups, particularly in the high tech field. The practice of dual leadership has a long tradition in performing arts organizations in North America and is becoming more common in Germany, as well.
