Traits/habits/behaviors of your favorite partners? I’ve been in a management role for years and now am part of a partnered team. Trying to figure out how to be a good partner.

Be the partner you want to have.
Always present a united front.
Loyalty is everything.
Don’t talk shit about them behind their back. Defend them and they’ll do the same for you. Don’t overtly disagree with each other in presentations or creative reviews.
Don’t present new work or ideas you’ve not previously discussed.
For better or worse, everything you do individually represents you both.
No matter who thought of the original idea, you’d be wise not to say. You’re a team so it belongs to both of you.
