The Coworking Community Builder Cohort

Join the next 12-week Online Sprint Cohort For Community Builders in the Coworking Industry.

Are you navigating the unique challenges of running a community or a solo business?

Many community leaders and managers face the daunting task of balancing engagement, growth, and sustainability within their communities. The pressure to constantly innovate and maintain high levels of participation can lead to burnout and frustration.

Community leaders in and around coworking struggle to achieve their goals without the right support, leading to stagnant or declining community health.

Our summer sprint cohort is designed for Community Builders and Managers from the Coworking Industry Seeking Growth and Connection.

Failing to get the right guidance and support can result in missed opportunities for growth, decreased member satisfaction, and, ultimately, the decline of your community’s vibrancy.

Without intervention, community managers risk becoming overwhelmed, potentially leading to the closure of valuable community spaces.

Whether you’re building your community or looking for ways to manage your projects more effectively, our confidential cohorts are designed just for you. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities of running a community or a solo business.
