In collaboration, all parts of the team are working together to achieve the same mission. Collaboration builds espirit de corps, which is directly connected to mutual trust. Research shows that teams with a higher sense of espirit de corps trust each other more. They have a sense of comradeship. These teams know that each individual is going to pull their own weight and do what they need to do in order to accomplish a mission. This heightens teamwork, as team members are more inclined to collaborate with each other. A leader must also get to know their subordinates individually. When each person feels like their leader has their best interest in mind, this fosters a climate that develops mutual trust and shared understanding. Through all these concepts, the leader may establish a climate which continues the development of trust and understanding between leaders and subordinates produced through the distributive and collaborative leadership process.

Despite the advantages associated with a shared leadership approach, some disadvantages also exist. One disadvantage originates from individual interpretations of teamwork (Baghai & Quigley, 2012). In other words, not all people in a work environment view working together the same, posing a leadership challenge to clearly delineate the organization’s concept of team. Other disadvantages arise when workers chose to bypass or overlook some team members, or when an individual lacks the confidence to exhibit leadership skills resulting in organizational loss of leadership potential (Pearce, Wassenaar, & Manz, 2014).
