Inside a shared workspace, there are often dozens of individuals from several different companies. They have different tasks, often different timeframes for their work, and different deadlines, Yet they all occupy the same general space. How do they share this space so that the workspace is not only a friendly atmosphere, but acts as a cohesive and flowing environment for creativity and productivity?

While the differences and comparisons give people things to talk about, it is the similarities between the businesses and the individuals that bring anything together. While there are many different businesses in a shared workspace who offer different types of services, their goals and desires are not totally different. Each business wants to change the way something gets done to make it easier, to provide more information in a more accessible format, or to produce new platforms for communication, transportation, commerce, or entertainment.

The same goes for the individuals who work for these businesses. They are all creative and enjoy the type of flexibility that a small business and a shared workspace provide for their lifestyles. They enjoy being able to use their skills for positive change, and being able to utilize a space that fits their personalities, their working styles, and their goals. The businesses harness the similarities of the community and the individuals within them, promoting an all around, friendly workplace shared by everyone.
