In personal growth groups, collaborative co‐training means not only the presence of two or more leaders, but also an interaction between or among the leaders that provides the groups with a model of cooperation and mutual learning. A synergy results that energizes the group. Necessary skills for collaborative co‐trainers are flexibility, consensual decision making, the ability to learn from one another, and the ability to develop an intimate communication system. This article describes a collaborative model, the skills needed, the advantages of co‐training, and the dimensions of co‐trainer selection.
