Hi all, In a LinkedIn coworking group that I'm in (maybe it's "the" LinkedIn coworking group? :), someone posted the following discussion question:
"...[w]e are discovering that the term coworking is causing confusion.Which simple phrases have you found to effectively relate coworking,especially in print media?" I thought it was worth opening that question up to this group as I've run into this same problem and still don't have a good solution. The confusion I've experienced comes from the fact that coworking is so similar (in meaning and spelling) to co-worker. If I say I have a coworking space to someone who isn't already familiar with the concept, their immediate reaction is often to assume that it's something to do with a place for co-workers, and though perhaps curious about what that could possibly be, it's not something they think they're looking for (even if coworking is exactly what they're looking for). Anyone have a nice pithy phrase (or phrases) that they think really communicate the core idea? Thanks!
