Why do people thrive in coworking spaces?
Over the last few years, there has been an exponential increase in coworking spaces around the world. Young professionals and upcoming businesses are opting for coworking solutions instead of entering into a long-term lease for a pricey office, that requires furniture and additional staff, such as a receptionist and cleaner. The new generation of working professionals is no longer happy to work in stuffy, formal offices on a full-time basis. They tend to prefer a flexible workspace that promotes efficiency and productivity, with the potential of boosting employee morale.
Here are 3x reasons why people thrive in coworking spaces and why it should definitely be something that you consider for your business (if you haven’t already):
- Flexibility
Today’s working professionals are all about that “work life balance” and avoid positions where there is the potential for them to be micromanaged. They want to work in organisations where their ideas and efforts are recognized, and don’t have to follow stringent rules that hinder their productivity. Employees require a higher degree of flexibility in their work-life to be happy, which will positively influence their productivity. A shared office space’s objective, whether that’s in a co-space or private office, is to create a community of like-minded professionals, who can work in a cohesive manner. Unlike traditional offices, there is no unhealthy competition or politics within a coworking space. This is due to the fact that people from multiple offices and industries work in these spaces. In a coworking space, employees can easily come in when they need to work, instead of sticking to the limiting 9 to 5 routine. This not only reduces personal expenses of getting to work and back every day, but also increases productivity.
- Opportunities
Modern professionals know the importance of networking. Building networks and interacting with the right people can help professionals boost their business, unlike in a traditional office space, there are very few opportunities to network. Daily networking opportunities, amongst our planned events, bring about infinite opportunities to reach a diverse group of people on a regular basis. By working side by side with experienced veterans from diverse industries, you get exposed to resources that your business may require. With the wide field of co-workers in a space such as Cube Workspace, you can easily get help from somebody who has the required skill sets and experience to assist you with a specific aspect of your business’s operations. Not only is this beneficial for your business’s turnover, but also allows you to reduce your sales/marketing costs, as your ideal customer might be sitting right next to you.
- Creativity
Many professionals often get disillusioned due to the tedious nature of their work. Traditional spaces, with their basic designs and structures just add to this monotony. Coworking spaces on the other hand, offer a creative and engaging solution, offering inspiration and that feeling of wanting to be in the space. Cube’s Workspaces have been designed to be attractive to all generations with greenery throughout, open spaces with glass doors and walls, entertainment rooms and modern sleek finishes. Most private office come with customisable options, allowing you to choose the space that suits your business best. Not only does the feel of the space make an impact, but so does the vibrant ambiance. Why not keep your employees happy and thereby enhance productivity – It’s an obvious win for your business.
