To clarify some points about „Free Coworking“ we start this series: „Free Coworking“ explained. Today I like to look at one of the most important aspects for „Free Coworking“ to become widespread and sustainable. Number One: Without „Applied Teamwork“ or „Collaboration“ there is no „Free Coworking“. In my introduction to „Free Coworking“ on the 6th […]

We live in a very paradoxical world. We want most things for free: free internet, free music, free films. If it can be reproduced easily or it is digital, of course we want it for free. When it comes to collaboration a lot of people suddenly hesitate. Collaboration for free? No, that is not possible. […]

„Free Coworking“ needs a critical mass of Social Capital to attract Financial Capital. This is true on a local, as well as on a global scale. For „Free Coworking“ to operate on a global scale we need at least 10,000 committed activists which I think is worth about 15.000.000 € in Social Capital. In the first […]

Yes it is true. Coworking is going to evolve into „Free Coworking“. I predict that within the coming year you will see a marked increase in „Free Coworking“ offers. What do I mean by „Free Coworking“?  „Free Coworking“ means that as a coworking space user you do not pay for the use of the desk, […]

Now we have scientific evidence by Margaret Chatham Crofoot and Ian C. Gilby that small groups have a competitive advantage over larger groups. Translated in terms of changing the world: Small groups like coworking spaces or action groups have a competitive advantage over society as a whole in bringing about a change. Here is what […]

A lot of what coworking has been about up to now passes via written texts (emails, websites etc.) […]

To illustrate and develop the idea of „Crowd Accelerated Innovation„, I will present partly for entertainment, certainly for fun and inspiration a song in several versions (see next couple of days) that certainly has got the potential to become  a Coworking Song. For the gifted songwriters among us, maybe someone likes to offer a „coworking related text“ 😉 to sing […]

We wish you a Merry XMAS!!! Beautiful days or hours with your families and friends!!! Enjoy and sing together in the best coworking tradition :-)))

After watching two very sickening videos on plastics (Video A, Video B)  in our oceans, I thought to myself, there must be a way to solve this problem. Well, how can we stop to produce so much rubbish and consume more products that are packaged in a sustainable way? Collaborative Consumption could be one very powerful […]

Now this is what I call an achievement!!! 25 million books send to African children since 1988. That is about a million books per year. Great!!! Kevin Jones, one of our activists in our newly founded group , already works with this organization. Starting up, like we just did with this campaign,  it is very useful to […]
