• 2, Co-learning - core competencies can be built for
individuals to rise to the challenge
• 3, Co-living - help tackle the issue of housing being a heavy
expense, as well as build deeper bonds within the company.
13. Co-working is an easy start
13
Plug and play setup
• Infrastructure - all done
• Culture - hard part is finding one that suits you
• Network - events, networking, and perks
• Pro-tip: Adopt Google’s Nested Approach
14. Co-learning is key
14
Train and Retain
• Companies cannot attract talent just by virtue of location
and pay.
• Effective co-education can give companies the competitive
edge
15. Co-living is more than just a house
15
Connection and community
• Helping individuals and families address the problem of
expensive accommodation.
• A modern iteration of the hacker house setup where
members of a startup would live and work in an apartment,
• Co-living lets companies be partners with their employees in
shouldering the burden of housing.

and responsibilities encroach into their personal lives
• Too lax and it will chase away potential superstars who get
no fulfilment at work

education, and co-living can make company culture central

Case Studies and Projects
Look through how geography and resources play a part to the development of businesses in a region, starting from the simple marine businesses near the seas, to more specific industries
Short case study on Silicon Valley, how it had started, and is slowly becoming unsustainable, that developers and companies are moving out of the space, to stay along the peripheries of the region, such a move will precipitate segmentation within the complex space of tech companies
Expand on the idea, where we saw institutions and necessities drive the development of co-living and co-studying, we will now see how these two working hand in hand, could be a powerful and influential institution on its own
Google
Letting Google employees explore how they'd like to work and given them the freedom within the environment to approach work in a way that suits them.
Google employees often work long days and even weekends. However, with the perks, environment, and flexibility on where employees can work, Google has managed to create a very creative and enjoyable workplace.
Google has individuals whose one and only purpose is to keep employees more than happy and sustain productivity.
The edge that some companies have over others lies in successfully gelling the professional and personal aspects of their people.
The answer to the corporate arms race of the future lies in a solid company culture that is relatable and sustainable.
Allowing smaller companies the means to pool their resources together, and scale from there, the lure of a like-minded professional community spurring individual companies in the space to effectively punch above their weight.
Pro-tip: seeing the effectiveness of their teams peak at numbers between 6-8
1. Companies can’t rest on their laurels expecting to be the first choice in the minds of talent
2. Keeping and developing talent in-house, circumventing the situation where retention becomes the first line of defence, and instead instill core company culture, principles and values from the onset.
Achieving a balance while integrating the professional and personal lives of employees is a tough challenge.
