The CAA answer is that you should have two sets of plates, and since most corporate operators these days use JeppView, just hitting "2" on number of copies to print covers it.
However, it is realistically often the case in corporate flying that you are going somewhere on short notice so that the time or even paper to print two sets of 30 odd pages is not available Assuming that your f/o is reasonably competent (which may be rash depending on your company), then the non-handling pilot should have the plate after the briefing. This way the handling pilot can concentrate on flying and ask the other pilot what heading/track/altitude to fly, or if the non-handling person is reasonably switched on they don't need to be asked as they supply the information they would require if they were flying - or am I living in cloud-cuckoo land?
