co-directors
Joint creative heads
Co-directors are two or more people who share directorial responsibilities for a film, play, organization, or department.
The arrangement may divide duties by expertise or reflect equal creative partnership: The Coen brothers work as co-directors on all their films.
In corporate settings, co-directors typically share authority over a division or program.
