Finding the right address for your office is vital to making sure that you have the foundations for sustainability and the tools for growth.

You also want a workspace that fits into your longer-term vision of durability and expansion for your company. Moving your office to a shared workspace could be the step your business needs; providing you with a prestigious Washington, DC address and all of the resources you'll need to thrive without the full cost of a traditional office lease. 

It seems like every other week that we are reading about another corporate hack or data breach in the news. Advances in technology have allowed us to connect and work in new and exciting ways, but they have also revealed the vulnerability of our personal information. If major corporations like these are at risk of being hacked, smaller organizations and individual professionals who don't have the resources to implement complex security systems to protect their data are clearly at risk as well. Now more than ever, it is crucial that we are all mindful of protecting our personal data; here are a few simple security tips that will give you some peace of mind.

As a leader of your business, it's your responsibility to answer many crucial questions about the future of your organization. How can I best accommodate additional staff? What kind of office plan works for my business? What kind of message do I want to send guests and clients? By considering a private office suite in your shared office space, you may just find the answer to all these questions and more.

So you’ve done it: you started your own business. You’ve taken the leap. The next steps can be as exciting as they are terrifying but now that your organization has taken off, it and you will need to adapt on the fly. The name of the game is efficiency and that means spending money on the things you need and saving on the things you don’t. Young companies, in their eagerness to get to work, too often fall into traditional models of doing business which can trap capital, stifle growth and leave employees ill-equipped to do their job.

Whether you are providing exceptional customer service, facilitating a productive meeting or workshop, or hiring a new employee, your ability to create genuine connections will set you and your business apart!

Lately, many of the routines and procedures we rely on to manage our businesses have been upended.
