Think about your career and the types of words you would use to describe it. Fast-paced? Dynamic? Ever-changing? Evolving? Challenging? You need a work space that can keep up with you. For some, that’s a traditional office at HQ; for others, productivity is just fine at the dining room table. When you need something different, though, a coworking environment can empower you to get the creative juices flowing, to get your brain cells firing, and to get more done — and done more effectively and efficiently.
Benefits of Hub & Spoke’s Coworking Environment
How can the Hub & Spoke innovative coworking environment and event hosting space help you meet your career- and business-building goals?
We’re Lonely… And Coworking Environments Create Connection
Let’s start here because it’s a big one. If you were (or are) among the millions who went Work From Home during the pandemic, you know this all too well. A recent survey found that over half of us feel lonely at work. But if we blame this on the pandemic, we’re mistaken. Pre-COVID numbers indicate that 60% of us felt the same way while we were at our physical workplace (this is as high as 80% for Gen Zs and 71% for Millennials).
This sense of loneliness and isolation has a direct correlation to lower levels of job satisfaction, engagement, productivity, and, ultimately, retention.
Hub & Spoke offers a synergistic, creative environment that allows you to connect and collaborate. You are surrounded (at a safe distance!) by other innovative minds, and you can tap into this energy to help fuel your own drive and ambition.
You…. Supercharged
When it comes to “levels of thriving,” people who work in coworking environments report an average of 6 on a 7 point scale. For reference, folks who work in a regular office report an average of 5. What’s behind the boost?
According to Harvard Business Review, several factors play a part. For one, we come from different companies and organizations. “Because there is little direct competition or internal politics, [people] don’t feel they have to put on a work persona to fit in.” Our own work identities become stronger, which can also increase our sense of satisfaction in what we do.
We can be ourselves — and, at the same time, working collaboratively becomes business as usual. “Meaning may also come from working in a culture where it is the norm to help each other out, and there are many opportunities to do so; the variety of workers in the space means that coworkers have unique skill sets that they can provide to other community members,” according to HBR.
Hub & Spoke puts you in contact and in connection with professionals across the design and construction fields. From bouncing ideas off one another to creating mutually beneficial relationships to commiserating, this environment allows you to find deeper meaning in your work.
It’s All Here
On a practical, nuts-and-bolts level, Hub & Spoke’s coworking environment offers everything you need to maximize productivity and connectivity. Your membership allows you to access:
- Dedicated, lockable offices
- Open work spaces
- Conference room and collaboration space
- High speed internet
- Networking events
- A Fishers mailing address and onsite mailbox
- Discounted Makerspace membership
Above all, your workspace needs to work for you. You have the flexibility to collaborate in an open space when you want that communal vibe. If you are running a training, presentation, or meeting, host it in a high-end conference room. When you need to think, contemplate, speak with someone privately, or power through a report, you have a door to close.
It’s all here. It’s all accessible. It’s all about how you work best.
Event Hosting Opportunities
When you don’t have the right space (e.g. you’re dining room table, which is covered with homework, projects, and maybe even dinner; your everyday office and its ever-present piles of… stuff), it is difficult to host a “must be there” event for employees, customers/clients, investors, potential partners, collaborators, and other stakeholders in your business.
Hub & Spoke delivers a striking environment with the amenities you need for a successful event. The unique, contemporary venue combines an airy, open art-gallery-style space with an outdoor area along Fishers’ famed Nickel Plate Trail. With stunning views (inside and out) guests will eagerly await your invitation.
You also have the opportunity to attend events held by others in the community — a perfect chance to meet and greet others in your industry.
This is your space. Make the most of it.
Work. On Your Terms
We asked you to think about the words you’d use to describe your work. Fast-paced. Dynamic. Ever-changing. Evolving Challenging. Why not add a few more: Rewarding. Meaningful. Collaborative. Innovative. Autonomous. Flexible. Fun.
As a member of Hub & Spoke’s coworking environment, you can access the spaces you need to work effectively and efficiently. You also access the connections, the minds, the innovation, the joy you need to thrive.
