Here are 4 things to consider:

 

1. Productivity
   

   Most people tend to be more productive in the office, there are fewer distractions such as noise and constant movement.

   This means workers can spend more time focusing on their work tasks. The removal of distractions heightens concentration levels and can encourage a productive team.

   On the other hand, co-working space is good for productivity because co-working is specifically intended to accommodate the needs of independent and hybrid workers.

   This includes areas for concentrated work, for virtual and face-to-face meetings and regular networking opportunities with other business within the building

2. Networking
   

   A co-working space is great for networking as popular spaces build a network of like-minded workers.

   This means co-working spaces are a great opportunity to meet new business contacts, share advice with other entrepreneurs and connect with people who have complementary skills.

   In your office, hosting events is easier since no permission or extra payment for space is needed.

   When considering what spaces work for you it is important to note that co-working networking is much more natural, however,  can take a long time to form.

3. Flexibility
   

   All of our spaces here at St James Business Centre boast flexibility. Brilliant for business growth. Our working environment provides you with the ultimate freedom for starting-up or expanding your business. Whatever you need. We are here to help.

4. Control
   

   How much control would you like over your workspace. Offices provide you with a home away form home.

   Personalise your space to fit your business and enhance your team’s productivity. Build your brand and let the people know just who you are the minute they step through your door.
