ThisWeekIn Coworking

Discuss these newsletters with industry leaders.

What?

Join weekly audio-only discussions with industry leaders from around the world about the news, views, and market moves shared in this newsletter.

Why?

Personally, I believe that the best way to turn information into actionable knowledge is through active discussions with peers, colleagues, and even competitors.

When?

These discussions are held for 1 hour each week at:

8am PST · 11am ET · 4pm GMT · 6pm EET · 11pm GMT+7

Below is a calendar of the next upcoming discussions, with direct links to the calls on LinkedIn within them.

Where?

After 14+ months of calls on the Clubhouse app, the weekly discussions were moved to LinkedIn Audio.

How?

Click the event link per discussion, and ‘join‘ the event (if it’s before starting time). 

At the time of the event return to that link and click the blue ‘Join’ button from your mobile, laptop, or desktop device.

Once in the room, you’ll be able to start listening to the discussion.

As these calls are discussions and not panels, you’re always welcome and join us on the ‘talking floor’ to say hi and share your thoughts and takes on the week’s news and moves. To do so, ‘ask to speak’ and you’ll be given the ability to unmute yourself and contribute to the discussion, ask questions or dig into trends that matter to you.
