Dude, is the rest of this community chiming in to these gems? They oughta.
Some comments on this coworking snippet (?): -To Geoff's point about the fact that members do different work, but work side by side, presents a challenge, so too does the fluctuating nature of the community built into the model (e.g. most members have options of month to month - though we've NEVER had anyone join for just one month). Still, there is turnover with which to contend, but there are also ways to integrate newbies (topic of next snippet?). -When members help shape how the space operates (ownership), that builds trust. A stake, if you will. -As members see communication between space owners + coordinators and their members as a 2 way street, that builds trust. (e.g. Hey, here's what we can provide members, and in turn where we could use help. We also hear what you need and thank you for what you can provide/where you can participate).
