Hey All, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experiences and advice with me on this one.
To date he still hasn't completed the sign up process so I feel that actually in fact the branding and the collaborative environment may be a deterrent in itself for people who may be in a position to abuse the space or not be comfortable here. I have spoke to individual members who may know him and the general feeling was the same as you all described - we would not be opposed to his initial joining us, however we would have a period of time that it would take to trust and feel comfortable working around this new coworker. They also feel that he probably would not stay on for long. Until then, thank you all so much for sharing your experience on this!
