This came across my google alerts yesterday and I found it fascinating http://www.builtinchicago.org/profiles/blogs/when-coworking-fails-and-the-side-effects-on-the-community?xg_source=activity. It's basically one person's story of wanting to be a part of a community, finding a "coworking" space and then realizing that there was no community at all. :(
We've had a lot of discussion around executive centers branding themselves as coworking spots and there are plenty of emotions around the topic. What sticks out for me in this article is the feeling of helplessness I had after reading it. How can we encourage the author to continue to try to find the perfect fit community/coworking space for his needs? It breaks my heart that he had a bad experience with the word "coworking." Additionally, my worst nightmare situation is having a member who felt this way about Cohere's version of coworking.
