Whether startup or F500 company, I’ve always seen the CEO as someone who focuses externally (using markets, competitors, stakeholders etc to set the vision of the company), and COO focused internally (managing day to day tasks, getting the right people, processes and tools in place to achieve the vision).
You can make either work but you have to balance strengths & weaknesses with your co-founder between the visionary and salesperson (CEO) vs the person who can just simply get sh*t done (COO).
