The top 5 benefits of coworking: Collaboration at its best.
Working from home has its perks: no commute to and from the office, flexible working hours, and the choice to take the dog for a walk around the block between meetings. There can also be drawbacks such as feeling isolated and even a lack of connection. That’s where coworking comes in. A coworking space can provide the perks of working from home, but with many additional benefits. We have listed our top 5 benefits of coworking for your consideration the next time working from home gets a little lonely!
1. Connection and Collaboration
The most significant benefit of a shared office space is the opportunity to connect and network with like-minded individuals. When you’re working alongside entrepreneurs and business owners from various industries who already believe in the benefits of coworking, there is a strong sense of openness and connection from the outset. Such an environment can provide numerous opportunities for people to collaborate, cross-pollinate ideas and offerings and share knowledge.
2. Flexible working schedule
Being able to come and go from your shared workspace makes the benefit of having your own private desk or office even sweeter. There is power in being able to create a schedule that suits your needs. Having the option to work from home, whilst knowing your workspace is there when more structure is required ensures that those sluggish days are a tad more productive.
