About us
Work Better is a Meetup Group in Prague for English-speaking location-independent professionals--remote workers, freelancers, digital nomads, entrepreneurs, writers, creatives, and scholars--who want to work more effectively, successfully, and happily.
If you're looking for ways to work more efficiently; to collaborate with, support, and get support from others; to clarify and better achieve your goals; or to reignite your passion about work, then this group is for you.
----------
Events include:
- Workshops, Trainings, & Lectures: When the opportunities arise, the group will host workshops, trainings, or lectures focused on improving the quality of one's work or work-life balance. If you have a great talk on this topic that you'd like to give, please let us know!
Mastermind Groups: Recurring meetings with the same participants in a small group over an extended period to share knowledge, clarify goals, and hold each other accountable.
Jelly! Jelly is a "work meetup" for people who can and often do work from anywhere with a desk and an internet connection but who would rather do it alongside others doing the same.
The "Group Work Meetups": an intensely focused four hours of work in a group setting, using a group pomodoro technique for those who want it.
The "Critique-Free Writing Meetup": A weekly meetup for writers of any kind (scholarly, journalism, non-fiction, fiction, etc.) who could benefit from a sacred time and a shared/social context to just write, write, write each week.
The Prague Writers Group: A bi-weekly meetup for creative writers to read and critique one another's work.
Your idea goes here! We're open to other ideas and often adding various events that might help all of us work better, so let us know if you have a good idea that you'd be willing to help organize!

Why We Buy With Our Eyes: The Fast Psychology of Design, with Meera Patel
Locus Workspace, Slezská 45, Vinohrady, Prague, CZ👀 What You'll Learn
Why do certain products appear more expensive, trustworthy or appealing – even when the underlying brand is exactly the same?
Through visual experiments, audience games and familiar real-world examples, this interactive talk explores how typography, shape, colour, packaging and branding influence the assumptions we make in seconds. We’ll also examine the Kiki/Bouba effect and how our brains instinctively connect visual cues with qualities, emotions and meaning.
The goal isn’t to stop design from influencing us – it’s to become more aware of when and how it happens. No design background is required.
