Change is probably one of the most common words used and experienced by every individual and business during last year. And at a level, none of us could have anticipated. But how did we choose to move through it? How did we start to suppress the virus? How do we thrive when it's all over? The answer is simple, by working together.
So, where does coworking come into this? It's the professional way to continue our collaborative efforts and problem proofing businesses. Let's start with the high level of knowledge sharing. It's huge. Coworking spaces have been synonymous with freelancers, sole-traders, startups and digital nomads. Now, they are just as much a place for long term employees in larger corporations.
They are for the person who wants to live in a specific area but still retain their corporate gig. Coworking spaces don't discriminate when it comes to industry or position either. You might have representatives from tech, e-commerce, accounting, UX, pharma, marketing and CEOs all sitting around one table. They share knowledge on breaks through their online community as well as at the space's events.
With employees craving greater flexibility in their work, the post-pandemic coworking space will be a melting pot of talent. What happens when you bring everyone together? Progress. If you are in a coworking space, you are in the heart of the action. People are in the know about who is doing what, how someone else solved an issue someone else is having. It's an obvious time and money saver, not to mention the access to a range of knowledge and experiences.
From something as simple as the right digital tool to referral for a contractor, it's a hub of opportunity and solutions. And everyone is bringing their newfound knowledge back to their company, whether it's their own business or someone else's. Either way, all companies continue to evolve, as do the people in the coworking space too.
It's the home of networking. When a collective of professionals share a working environment, there will always be something happening that is inventive, creative and professionally progressive. From trends to the latest resources, it's always moving. It's like a think tank but across multiple knowledge, bases giving the best oversight and fresh perspectives. It's also a great place to find new hires as the knowledge pool is there.
We're having a universal experience with the pandemic, and our response to it has been a global one. The answer to the future of work is a collaborative one. With coworking, you can move forward with the knowledge without the expense. We continue to move through change as a community regardless of our industry. It's a no brainer that we will continue to overcome challenges as a group, so why not be part of a space that supports all businesses in not only surviving but excelling in a post-pandemic world.
