Abstract
The world after COVID-19 is strongly transformed by the digital revolution and industry 4.0 and it demands a new leadership style. Younger, connected, restless and convicted people do not want to work for someone: they want to work with someone. Coevolutive leadership proposes to be a positive answer at this new social, cultural, and economic moment, based on three key elements: Vision, Conviction and Motivation. This leadership model seeks progression over time from people who are freed from the ungrateful task of receiving orders to build together, with active shared responsibilities and who seek, in a changing and still unclear future, to cooperate in the mind, in the hands and in the heart. These are probably the legacies of the pandemic, a better world for everyone with the obligation of being each day a better person. A struggle for life and a life for struggling to help others.
