πŸ’Ό Know how we keep saying about the best coworking hires?
They come through coworking intros! Here’s how Chauntelle Lewis joined TownSq after a series of Expand πŸ‘‡ serendipitous coworking interactions with people like AJ Haast, Bernie J Mitchell, Tony Bacigalupo and Lucie Merkl.
(PS. Hiring? Patron Brands can share open roles with the 3000+ industry professionals who engage with This Week In Coworking newsletters each and every week. Just imagine who they could be introducing you to.)
πŸ’¬ Do you run any programming to foster wider connections?
Tony Bacigalupo asked coworking space operators if they run any public programs designed to foster Expand πŸ‘‡ community, that others could try in their own cities.
In the 17 LinkedIn comments, community leaders from across the globe share ideas they’ve tried and feedback on how they’re going or went. Anything you’d add?
πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ What’s missing from the recipe for a coworking renaissance
Tony Bacigalupo shares the one thing we need for 2024 to be a coworking renaissance: the message. Expand πŸ‘‡ More notably, what’s been left on the table in our collective messaging to date: spaces of belonging.
In this post, and video, Tony shares how we can create a new, urgent story that parallels the "return to work" storyline: "Belongful workers are better workers. Coworking is in the business of belongfulness."
πŸ’‘ Going back to coworking basics
Tony Bacigalupo shares how they’re going back to ‘the magic’ of coworking they found way back in Expand πŸ‘‡ 2017. How? By hosting coworking meetups in local cafΓ©s.
In the attached longer break-down of what went into it, and how it all went, Tony also invites others to go back to basics and arrange meetups near them. Is this completely separate from "coworking" spaces? I don’t think it has to be. There’s whole communities of people who wouldn’t "try rent a desk" but would "meet up and work with other people".
How these two groups can support each other, I’ll leave to you amazing community leaders.
πŸ“‘ Learning from 8k words of notes on fighting loneliness
Tony Bacigalupo shares key takeaways from the 8k+ words of notes he took at the recent Expand πŸ‘‡ "Building Connected Communities" conference he attended whilst researching loneliness and isolation.
Key points shared were: there’s a lot of research into loneliness (and all point to the same things); joining a club can save your life; how disconnection breeds discontent; the power of self-organized groups; a state’s taskforce to end loneliness; and more.
