Casual coworking - The Flexibility Benefits of coworking Spaces

Announcement posted by Servcorp Australia 23 Aug 2018

Nearly half of Melbourne’s businesses have adopted the coworking space format. Moreover, cities like Sydney and Perth are finding the office format a more feasible option to leasing office space. With a combination of the social interaction and work, Australian professionals and businesses, alike, have benefitted in many ways from coworking.

One of the greatest benefits of the coworking space is that they offer businesses an extremely flexible alternative to conventional office leasing. This flexibility allows your office to be multi-functional and reduces the amount of money and time businesses expend overall.

Keep reading to learn more about coworking’s flexibility and how this office solution can benefit your business.

Networking And Collaborating

Because of the way coworking typically works, the office does much of the work of placing professionals in proximity to each other for the purpose of networking. Many coworking spaces are comfortably outfitted with furniture, including a hot desk and dedicated desk. While the dedicated desk is more private, the hot desk can be a hub of activity in the office. In one room, alone, you can find professionals and businesses from diverse industries working together.

This organisation is important in creating the atmosphere for conversation, as there are no walls or offices as impediments to socialising. Whether about work or personal matters, professionals engage in the type of informal conversations and networking that creates the platform for other activities. These opportunities, in addition to the more formal networking events, help your business form partnerships.

Collaboration is probably one of the main benefits of working in a coworking space. By working with others on projects, professionals have opportunities to meet other people in the business community, the chance to raise their own business profile, and the chance to learn about various industries. Of the office arrangements, the coworking space is one that provides businesses with this type of multi-functionality.

Branching Out To Other Areas

Another benefit of coworking’s flexibility is that the space allows for businesses to operate in more than one location, especially if leasing with larger outfits with offices around the globe. For someone looking to branch out or even test new markets, the coworking space provides businesses with a low-cost alternative to office space. In Australia, because of the popularity of coworking in places such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, someone looking for space in any number of these locations would have very few problems.

For example, you currently are operating your business out of a coworking space in Canberra but would like to expand to Sydney. As opposed to having to spend excessively on two spaces, you could alternatively lease space in both cities. If the leasing company has offices in both places, most companies will allow you to reserve space on an as-needed basis in the new location.

Providing A Sense Of Community

The coworking space also provides businesses with a sense of community within the larger business community. In fact, because of the social factor, many coworking spaces take on a character and function of their own in the business community. Regardless of your location in Australia, your business benefits from the flexibility that comes from an office that functions as a place to work and to network. Furthermore, no other office format can provide your business with direct connections to others from the same and varying industries.

Coworking’s Multi-Functionality

The flexibility that comes with coworking is in that it is a space that can be used in a number of different ways. While still functioning as a place to work, the space can be used to build relationships and network, to expand, and to connect to the business community. For the cost, businesses gain much more by investing in coworking spaces.
