Have you got a collaborative habit?

That is a book by Twyla Tharp, who's a world-renowned choreographer.

Twyla talks about all the projects she's worked on, including
collaborations with Billy Joel, Jerome Robbins, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, David Byrne, Richard Avedon, Milos Forman, Norma Kamali, and Frank Sinatra.

They are successful, and they all come down to collaborating with people.

Yesterday, when I attended the Coworking Alliance Summit with Ashley, Sam Poler and Hector, the room was always full of that vibe.

What is truly unique about your coworking space that you are scared to share?

What is truly unique about your coworking space that you are scared to share? So, can you imagine how mind-numbingly dull it is to look through websites or coworking spaces when you want to find somewhere to work? Because they all say things like: -Free WiFi! (Which is like boasting you have a bathroom!) -Innovation! (Really?) -Unique community! (I know you say this with the best intent, but...) But drill down and think, what is the unique thing your coworking space provides? And this is

Should You Close or Keep Marketing Your Coworking Space Over the Holidays?

The Case for Taking a Holiday Break For coworking space operators in London, December is often a month of tough decisions. With the festive season in full swing, many wonder: “Should we shut down and take a break or keep pushing our marketing and communications to stay visible?” While closing and switching off for the holidays is tempting, there’s a compelling case for staying active — especially in a city where self-employed workers and freelancers rarely switch off entirely.
