Why Flex Is Best

How can a flexible workspace impact the growth and success of your business?

Creating a workspace that anticipates your needs and inspires exceptional work is a hallmark of The Executive Centre. To simplify the process of choosing the right space for your business to thrive, this is what you can expect from our spaces – from Private to Bespoke, Coworking and Remote, let The Executive Centre support you.

The nature of work is changing, workspaces and workplaces are continuing to evolve and now, more than ever, there are conversations unfolding about how and why space can impact on productivity, creativity and output. The Executive Centre has been developing flexible workspace solutions for almost 25 years, the network now includes more than 115 centres in what will soon be 30 locations and we are continuing to grow. Our experience has taught us that an office is much more than four walls and a place to work. A thoughtfully designed space that attentively responds to the needs of our Members can have a profound impact on the ultimate success of their business. Choosing the right space and the appropriate services to support your business can be a decisive factor when it comes to determining the longevity and growth of an organisation. To help demystify this process we are sharing some of the insights we have gained in our years of operation.

Statistics show that the number of coworking spaces globally in 2017 totalled 15,500, serving approximately 1.27 million people. Mingtiandi reports that Asia Pacific is leading the global surge in flexible offices, with total co-working and serviced office space in the region soaring 150 percent from 2014 to 2017, according to a new report by JLL. The growth of the industry is a key indicator of the shift in how and where we work. Our relationship with workspace is changing, our expectations of what an office looks like are evolving, and technology, design, community and aesthetics are a more prominent concern for both individuals and organisations. Choosing the right space for your business to thrive can be an overwhelming decision, but our flexible solutions are a response to these changing workplace dynamics.

What are the benefits of Coworking?

  • Flexibility is one of the greatest advantages of Coworking at The Executive Centre. Our spaces and facilities are available for you to use at a time that works for you. Coworking is also an ideal solution if you travel often or want to use a professional workspace part-time.
  • Structure and support are crucial in any workplace, but particularly so for the entrepreneur or freelancer who has decided to cowork. Working alongside like-minded professionals not only creates networking and collaborative opportunities, but it creates a strong sense of purpose in an environment designed as a foundation to your success.
  • Community is a cornerstone of our Member experience and this is particularly important when Coworking. In-person networking opportunities are made possible by the layout of our collaborative work environments and also by our suite of events and online community initiatives.

What are the benefits of a Remote Workspace (Virtual Office)?

  • A Virtual Office space gives your organisation legitimacy thanks to a prestigious business address, while still affording you the flexibility to work when and where you want to.
  • Administrative details are taken care of, leaving you to get on with more pressing matters. Mail-handling, call-handling and a dedicated phone line mean significantly less administration for both you and your team.
  • Avoiding a commute means a significant improvement in work-life balance without the need to compromise on the benefits that a landmark address can provide.
  • It's much easier to scale your business when you don't need to worry about accommodating a fluctuating team in a designated space that you may soon outgrow. A Virtual Office offers your clients a consistent experience while you are afforded the time and flexibility to establish the best location and arrangement for your business.
