"Bist du eine Zukunftsgestalterin, ein Weltveränderer oder einfach ein Gemeinschaftstierchen? Fragst du dich, wie man selbstorganisierte Communities ins Leben ruft, Menschen zusammenbringt, gemeinsame Visionen entwickelt und dabei wertebasiert ins Handeln kommt?" Dann findest du in dieser Folge mit unserem Gast Manuel Bürli einige Inspirationen, Perspektiven und Praxisbeispiele, wie du dich auf den Weg machen kannst. Wir sprechen mit ihm über sein neues Buch "Community Branding - Von der Vision zum lebendigen Wir". Unter anderem schauen wir uns ganz konkret drei Communities in und um Bern an, den Effinger Coworking Space, Urbane Dörfer und Zehendermätteli im Glück. Manuel beschreibt, wie es gelingt und was es braucht, damit diese lebendigen Gemeinschaften entstehen und sich co-kreativ weiterentwickeln. Und ein Hauch von Magie und Unergründlichkeit ist natürlich auch dabei. "Du erfahrst, wie sie dort gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen mit einfachsten Mitteln angehen und dabei neue Modelle des Arbeitens und Lernens, des nachhaltigen Wohnens und des sozial-gerechten Geniessens entwickeln. Lokale Geschichten, Impulse und Werkzeuge für Menschen, die sich aufmachen in eine bessere Zukunft."

We cover: Why conversion rate optimization on your website is the fastest path to more revenue—and what's getting in the way Real math on what a 5% improvement in booking conversions can do for your bottom line How operators are using new tools like Elumo and Growth Hub to monetize amenities and eliminate friction Why the traditional “tours-first” mindset doesn't match today's on-demand buyer behavior Why your meeting rooms (and phone booths) should be treated like products with real dollar value—and how to make that happen with minimal effort Everything Coworking Featured Resources: Masterclass: 3 Behind-the-Scenes Secrets to Opening a Coworking Space Coworking Startup School Community Manager University Follow Us on YouTube

-Tras un periodo de ajuste marcado por su declaración de quiebra en 2023, WeWork emerge con una visión más enfocada y resiliente. La incertidumbre arancelaria, lejos de ser un obstáculo, ha abierto una ventana de oportunidad para el modelo flexible que la firma representa. Con una ocupación superior al promedio del mercado, una sólida base de clientes multinacionales y un plan de expansión de hasta 20% en México para 2025, WeWork demuestra que la flexibilidad no solo es una ventaja competitiva, sino un valor esencial en tiempos de cambio.
Recording of the panel held in Sofia on November 2024, at the Coworking Europe 2024 conference, entitled "What hospitality industries can teach coworking and how can coworking become part of the family?" Coworking is about people and care, not just about the facility. Hotels and restaurants have centuries of experience in hosting, and coworking operators are increasingly seeking staff with hospitality experience. Why is this, and what can coworking learn from the hospitality industry? What does hospitality truly mean, and how can it be applied to the workspace environment? What does a smile represent? How can we cultivate behaviors focused on personal service and care? How do we anticipate the needs of our clients? When recruiting, how can we identify the right skills? What level of service is appropriate to match the promised value for money? This panel, composed of experienced professionals who have worked in both hospitality and coworking, will help us explore the similarities and key insights that can transform flexible workspaces into places of genuine experience and personal satisfaction. Panelists : Patrick Aström (Helio Coworking), Kristelina Staykova (Entract127), Maria Piovano (The Social Hub), Elena Monserrate (Uncommon)

Coworking spaces in France are proliferating rapidly, particularly in regions with dynamic real estate markets characterized by high transaction volumes and a robust infrastructure of real estate services. This trend is extensively analyzed in the "8ème édition du Baromètre Arthur Loyd," which reveals that areas like Gironde, Rhône, and Bouches-du-Rhône are hotspots for coworking growth due to their mature tertiary real estate markets. These regions benefit from the presence of a diverse professional community and high levels of commercial real estate activities, which provide the necessary environment for coworking spaces to thrive. The demand for these flexible workspaces is increasingly driven by companies and employees seeking adaptable work arrangements, highlighting a shift towards more dynamic work environments that cater to both individual and corporate needs. In metropolitan areas where demand for office space is high, coworking spaces offer a practical solution by providing flexible leasing terms and a community environment that appeals to modern workers and companies.

Coworking spaces often promise community—but what does it really take to build one that's engaged, vibrant, and truly member-driven? Liz Barney, Director of Marketing & Community at Cahoots in Ann Arbor, Michigan, joins us to share how her journey from remote worker to coworking leader led to a game-changing experiment: a member-led approach to building community and social events. In this episode, we dive into: How Cahoots launched its “Community Committee” and empowered members to take ownership of events and initiatives. Why structured, member-led engagement can be more effective than traditional coworking social events. Lessons learned from different types of community-building experiments (what worked and what didn't!). The surprising ways introverts and extroverts engage in coworking spaces—and why a variety of offerings matters. How this approach fosters deeper connections, improves retention, and makes coworking spaces truly feel like home. This episode is packed with practical takeaways for coworking operators who want to level up their community strategy—without putting everything on their community team.

By now, we are all aware of the WeWork story. We know how the company grew to become synonymous with coworking spaces thanks to its lavish network of offices around the world. How these offices were once packed with young techies playing pool and sipping beer. And how, eventually, it all came crashing down. The company, once valued at 47 billion dollars, was brought to its knees.But here in India, the WeWork story has been playing out drastically differently. The workspace provider's India business is thriving. In fact, it is currently prepping for an IPO. It has managed to get to this point only because it is everything that its global sibling is not. More importantly, it realised somewhere down the line that it's better to ditch the frills and be a boring office space provider for all sorts of clients, not just the startup crowd. The pivot is now towards managed office spaces. Tune in. Daybreak is now on WhatsApp at +918971108379.
