There are over 12,000 coworking spaces in the world now, with another 5,000 or so joining the ranks in 2016 alone.<\/p>\n

Nobody owns coworking. Nobody controls it, nobody licenses it.<\/p>\n

So where’s the manual?<\/strong> How\u00a0are so many people around the world building what are, in many ways,\u00a0the same thing?<\/em><\/p>\n

The answer is, there is no manual.<\/strong> Coworking is a natural, emergent phenomenon. People are just coming to the same conclusions, everywhere.<\/p>\n

That being said, over the past ten years,\u00a0people building coworking spaces have also encountered a lot of the same challenges and had to devise a lot of the same solutions.<\/p>\n

Some of that’s been documented. With my lady Amy’s editing help<\/a>, my\u00a0friend Ramon<\/a> wrote the Ultimate Coworking Handbook<\/a>, which covers a TON of the bases. I highly recommend it.<\/p>\n

Alex Hillman has written extensively about many of the most important aspects\u00a0of coworking and community building, both on his site<\/a> and on the Coworking Google Group<\/a> (you’re on that, right?).<\/p>\n

But there are still HUGE\u00a0gaps in the collective knowledge base when it comes to resources and tools.<\/p>\n

To address this, New Work Cities is undertaking an effort to\u00a0develop the Ultimate Coworking Toolkit.<\/strong> We’ll start by using the documents,\u00a0processes and procedures we developed to help run\u00a0New Work City, then expand on them from there to include things we\u00a0wish\u00a0<\/em>we’d had, as well as some fantastic best practices we’ve learned visiting dozens of coworking spaces around the world.<\/p>\n
