Working life has faced a lot of changes recently. As a result of these changes, the traditional one-leadership model has been critically explored because of its inactivity for change. Competition be-tween organizations has accelerated, autonomous needs become more common and team-based working more popular. Team-based projects has also become complex which requires more knowledge than a leader can offer. As an answer to these new needs, evolving of collaborative models and teamwork has occurred. The solution has been proposed to be a shared leadership model, in which the leadership is divided into the interaction between the workers in team. The purpose of this study is to find out what shared leadership model requires from interaction to make active teamwork, learning and development come true. These findings are necessary for im-plementing and developing shared leadership model. In addition, factors challenging the realization of shared leadership are discussed. This research is a descriptive literature review. The research material was collected from Helka's and Google Scholar's databases, together with University of Helsinki Library's literature. The results of this study point out how shared leadership requires commitment, trust, support, shared information as well as dialogue-based discussion in which listening among team members comes to fruition. With these sub-areas, the state of shared leadership can be achieved, where the team's activities are guided by common action towards goals and development.
