SUMMARY:HR implications of the COVID-19 vaccine for space operators
DESCRIPTION:First inoculations of the COVID-19 vaccine were recently distributed among healthcare workers and you\, like many business leaders\, may be planning to evaluate your vaccine policy and the practical implications of policy rollout. \nJoin Jackie Breslin\, Director HR Compliance Services TriNet\, as she takes a deeper dive into what businesses need to know to keep up with the changing HR landscape in 2021 and beyond. \nJoin GCUC and HR experts to discuss the hard questions like: \n\nCan you require your employees to get the vaccines?\nWhat are the legal implications of that policy? \nIs it legal to require your members to show proof of vaccination to access the space?\nCan you disclose to the community which members are vaccinated vs not?\nCan you designate rooms for unvaccinated members? \n\nWe will have a brief presentation and then open it up to Q&A!  \n

SUMMARY:Workplace and Space Utilization: Sensors\, Analytics\, AI and More (webinar)
DESCRIPTION:The challenges facing corporate occupiers have been magnified by the tectonic shift to WFH. So many organizations are still uncertain as to how they’ll manage the complexities of the return to the workplace and how it will impact the organization –  from physical space requirements to enhancing productivity to ensuring that occupants are safe\, healthy and are actually motivated to return to an office workplace environment. In this series\, we explore the technologies required to facilitate and maintain these critical corporate real estate processes. \nWith COVID-19 impacting office density and traffic patterns\, building owners and operators are paying close attention to workplace occupancy data analytics from sensors. This session reviews tools and strategies for a data-driven\, flexible hybrid workplace design. \nPlease feel free to join our partners at Yardi as they share their perspective and insights during this webinar. \n

SUMMARY:How to scale your virtual mail operation overnight
DESCRIPTION:Snail mail is not your problem\, it’s your opportunity. As remote work becomes the new normal and employees become more nomadic\, how can your mail operations factor into your growth strategy? \nVirtual offices and mailing share one thing in common – a physical address (your physical address\, to be exact!). Increasing your virtual membership’s stickiness via snail mail paves the way for greater monetization from your most scalable revenue stream. \nWhat would it look like if your spaces monthly hard costs could be covered by your virtual mail offering without ever touching the revenue from your physical space? \nOn November 30th\, Sofia Stolberg\, Founder of Piloto 151 and PilotoMail will give you the road map to grow your virtual office membership\, unlock new revenue streams\, and increase member satisfaction through an optimized snail mail operation. \nAre you ready to scale?

Rising tides lift all ships. Whether you are one of the experts or just taking notes for your own spaces\, these sessions are game changers. \nYou can sign up for the Hot Seat by emailing stormy@gcuc.co or filling out the form at the bottom of the member newsletter.  The monthly calendar invite can be found in slack or the member newsletter. \n

SUMMARY:Webinar: What is Foresight?
DESCRIPTION:What is foresight with Liz Elam and Andy Hines: \n\n\n\n\n\n\nForesight is the ability to anticipate or predict what will happen in the future. It is often used to refer to the ability to plan for the future\, especially in a business or organizational context\, by considering various possible scenarios and making decisions that will help achieve desired outcomes. Foresight can also refer to the ability to envision or imagine what the future could be like\, whether in terms of technological\, social\, or other developments. The goal of foresight is often to identify and address potential challenges or opportunities that may arise in the future\, and to make informed decisions that will help an individual\, organization\, or society thrive in the long term. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAndy Hines literally wrote the book on foresight. He is a professor at the University of Houston and runs the program. He is on a mission to proliferate foresight through creating as many change agents as possible. His latest victim you all know is Liz Elam. Andy will be sharing the basics of foresight and the Houston method. Liz will be sharing a case study on how climate change is affecting settlement patterns 15 years out and what that means for the coworking/real estate industry. We’ll also be taking your questions.
