As a nonprofit, it’s vital to be a thoughtful steward of funds. The closer eye you can keep on your overhead, the more resources you can funnel toward putting good into the world. One of the major costs of running a nonprofit in a traditional office space – a potentially large, fixed cost that can take a large bite out of your bottom line. If you’re looking to dial in your overhead while providing a central, appealing place to raise funds and spread the word about your work, a coworking space is the answer. Here’s how they can meet your ever-evolving needs.
Gather Around: How Coworking Creates Community and a Sense of Belonging
Working from home has plenty of pros. Productivity gets a boost, and so do your working hours. And your dog loves having the option of fetching all day. But after a while, most Work From Homers start to feel like they’re missing out on something. After all, humans are social creatures – yes, even self-proclaimed introverts. However, getting back into the habit of “peopling” doesn’t have to mean going back to your old corporate digs full-time. Coworking and flex spaces are a great way to find your community on your own terms.
From Conventional to Cutting-Edge: Embracing Flex Spaces for Modern Work Environments
Flexible working has been a growing trend for well over a decade now. And after the boom in work-from-home habits during covid, flex spaces are now the new normal. If you’re launching a new office, expanding, or eyeing the end of your long-term commercial lease, transitioning to a flex office space such as a coworking hub can be a major win for worker satisfaction – and your bottom line. Here’s what to know.
Collaboration Makes Our World Go Round
Humans are social creatures. We’re at our best when we can talk with like-minded people, bounce ideas, share our dreams, and just, well, hang out. And while there’s a convenience to being able to handle all of our daily life stuff without leaving the house, we definitely lose something in the mix. If you’re finding that staring at Microsoft Teams or Tweeting up a storm just isn’t cutting it anymore, it might be that you need to recharge your social, creative, and professional batteries with an in-person get together. Don’t believe us? Here’s why workplace collaboration is so great.
