Hey Jerome that's interesting stats, do you have a reference to those workplace studies?
@Tracey: We found the "overbooking capacity" highly depends on a couple of factors: - community in the space (tighter community > people hang around more and stay longer in the space) - location (big cities > less in the office, smaller cities > more in the space) - hotdesk ratio (bigger hotdesk ratio leads to a more fluctuative behavior of members) On Thursday, September 1, 2016 at 11:06:53 AM UTC-4, Jerome wrote: > > Correct.
