Survey
Coworking, which provides the opportunity to share work space and the associated collaboration opportunities, yet remain independent, was one of the focuses of our last get-together. We’ve linked a number of coworking-related articles and websites to our webpage: http://www.waunakee-ed.com/loneeagles to give you a better idea of how coworking functions in different places. Given that a number of our participants have expressed some level of interest in coworking, we put together a brief survey to gauge the level of interest amongst the group as a whole. Here is a link to the survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2DRJJ9D. If you would be willing to take a few minutes to complete it before Friday May 3rd, we’d really appreciate it.
As many of you have already seen, we began a LinkedIn page for the Initiative last week. It is our hope that this will help facilitate communication between our participants, whether on a professional or social level. Please feel free to begin discussions about issues facing home office professionals, potential opportunities for collaboration, news, ways to engage the larger community, etc. The space is yours. If there is anything that we can do to facilitate the process, please let me know. Here’s the link to the group page: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=4964688&trk=hb_side_g.
Event
We are holding our next event next Thursday, May 2nd, at Lucky’s Bar & Grille, from 4:00-6:00 PM. In addition to providing another opportunity to network and socialize with your peers, this event will feature a short presentation by Ellen Schaaf, Executive Director of the Waunakee Area Chamber of Commerce, about the services that our local chamber can offer to home office professionals.
