How does a worker co-op decide who to do business with, how to improve production, or how to expand operations? Will there be individuals who focus on executive functions, on managerial functions?

What kind of individual would start a company and then allow other individuals to co-own their company?

This ideal is unrealistic and untenable.

A hierarchical power structure would arrange itself at least to some degree. Otherwise, hierarchical companies would outcompete them.

This does not address the fact that any such organization would still by nature be capitalist. The organization would be accumulating capital goods in order to produce consumer goods. There is also no solution to the fact that this type of organization could not build something like a car factory or a microchip fab.

To be an anti capitalist only means you misunderstand capitalism. If you are accumulating capital, you are a capitalist. There is nothing wrong with capitalism, it is by far the most efficient system at producing consumer goods and maximizing human prosperity.
