But as with any other community \u2013 the society you live in, your friend circle, etc. there are certain behavioural norms to be followed. The key idea here is to focus on your work and let the people around you focus on theirs. So, how should one behave in a Coworking space?\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s a behaviour checklist in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/\"><b>Coworking spaces<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to keep in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Top 10 Individual Behaviour Checklist In Coworking Spaces<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"#1\">Respect The Workplace<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#2\">Keep The Space Clean<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#3\">Check Your Volume<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#4\">Don\u2019t Monopolize Resources<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#5\">Be Friendly<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#6\">Maintain Good Hygiene<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#7\">Don\u2019t Hold Meetings At Your Desk<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#8\">Bring Your Own Supplies<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#9\">Dress Professionally<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#10\">Don\u2019t Spam People<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2046\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/toppings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/behaviour-checklists-in-coworking-595x392.jpg\" alt=\"Individual Behaviour Checklists In Coworking \" width=\"595\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/toppings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/behaviour-checklists-in-coworking-595x392.jpg 595w, https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/toppings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/behaviour-checklists-in-coworking-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/toppings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/behaviour-checklists-in-coworking-960x632.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.theofficepass.com\/toppings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/behaviour-checklists-in-coworking.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"1\">1. Respect The Workplace<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike a caf\u00e9 where some people come to work and others come to chill with their friends, everyone in Coworking spaces is there to work. So, it isn\u2019t fair to swivel your chair around and decide to have a long coffee break with someone else at the table.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your conversation can disturb others. Similarly, this isn\u2019t the space to prank someone else. Don\u2019t slam doors and walk softly. In short, accept the seriousness of the space and give it due respect.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"2\">2. Keep The Space Clean<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most-loved Coworking features is that you can usually sit anywhere you like. One day you may want to sit at a community table while on another you may want to tuck yourself away in a corner where distractions are minimal. What this also means is that the desk that was yours today may be someone else\u2019s tomorrow. Hence, leave your workspace as clean as you found it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Coworking environment has a lot of shared space \u2013 this too must be left clean. Don\u2019t litter and if you spill something \u2013 wipe it up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"3\">3. Check Your Volume<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the first few points on every Coworking guide. When you walk into the Coworking unit, make sure that your speech is not disturbing others at work. Keep your mobile on low volume or vibrate mode. Nobody wants to hear your ringtone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you need to take a call at a shared desk, step away and go to the designated phone booth or step out for the call. Similarly, when you\u2019re talking to other people, keep your volume low so it doesn\u2019t disturb other people around you. Since video calls are now quite routine in offices, make sure you use a pair of headphones for these calls.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"4\">4. Don\u2019t Monopolize Resources<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Printers, scanners, the fridge in the kitchen \u2013 these are all shared resources meant for everyone. If you\u2019re using the printer and notice that you\u2019ve used the last sheet of paper, tell the person in charge or refill the tray.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, if you\u2019ve emptied a bottle of water in the kitchen, refill it. If you\u2019ve got a large cake that needs to be refrigerated, don\u2019t simply remove everyone else\u2019s food from the fridge, rearrange things so that it all fits. These may not be written Coworking guidelines but they are basic ways to be courteous in a shared space.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"5\">5. Be Friendly<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be friendly with everyone. Smile, be polite and do your best to help others out. One of the benefits of Coworking is that it fosters collaboration so if you hear of a lead, share it with people who could benefit from it. Of course, if you\u2019re trying to focus on something, it wouldn\u2019t be considered rude to tell people that you don\u2019t want to be disturbed for a while.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"6\">6. Maintain Good Hygiene<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re looking at office space for rent, you probably looked at the overall cleanliness of the space. Your hygiene is just as important. No one wants to sit next to someone who has bad body odour or who has a cold and leaves used tissues lying around. Also, note that this isn\u2019t your bedroom \u2013 it isn\u2019t considered polite to put your head down and snore\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"7\">7. Don\u2019t Hold Meetings At Your Desk<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The availability of meeting rooms was probably one of the points on your Coworking checklist. Most Coworking spaces let you book meeting rooms at an added fee. It may be tempting to circumvent this fee and hold a small meeting at your desk but this goes against all Coworking etiquette. Even if it\u2019s a meeting with just one other person, step away from everyone else for your conversation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"8\">8. Bring Your Own Supplies<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asking for a pen may be a great way to introduce yourself to someone and strike up a conversation but you don\u2019t want to be known as the person who\u2019s constantly asking for stuff. Make sure you carry your own chargers, stationery, snacks, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also a good idea to carry a bottle of water with you. If you feel cold, bring a jacket along. Most importantly, make sure you take everything you brought back home with you at the end of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"9\">9. Dress Professionally<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Irrespective of what you do, make sure you are well dressed every day. It isn\u2019t necessary to be formally dressed but your clothes should be clean, properly ironed and modest. At the same time, an ironed bathrobe can\u2019t be considered appropriate. How you dress doesn\u2019t only impact the way you feel and your mood but also influences everyone else around you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"10\">10. Don\u2019t Spam People<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coworking space is a great place to network and make connections. You\u2019ll find that people are happy to help and even collaborate to promote your product to their audiences. But, don\u2019t overdo the sharing and become known as that guy who\u2019s constantly spamming inboxes. Find the right occasion to talk about your idea \u2013 you can strike up a conversation over lunch or attend networking events.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Our Two Cents\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following these simple guidelines can help ensure you experience all the benefits of working in a Coworking unit.
