chief of state
As a former translator for the US Department of State, I can tell you that the rule was
Chief of State
Head of Government
If you must refer to a mixed group, you use "heads of state and government"
Some countries that have both figures - a prime minister would be the head of government and the chief of state the president or king....well here I'm on shaky ground in this example, but the above rule is firmly established in US diplomatic language
