Virtual Coworking Session

Details

The “Engage” stage in Getting Things Done® is about doing—choosing the right action with confidence and clarity. Our Virtual Coworking Session gives you the space and social accountability to do just that. Whether you’re clearing your inbox, moving a project forward, or simply knocking out your next actions, this is your time to focus and execute.

## Overview

  • Think about what you plan to accomplish during an upcoming Virtual Coworking Session. (Pro tip: post your project or task below for extra accountability.)
  • Log into our Coworking Space at the time of the Event.
  • If it asks, the passcode: productive
  • Once we get started working, keep your video on, and mute your microphone.
  • Celebrate success!

## How Virtual Coworking Works

Our flavor of virtual coworking is to establish social accountability into the digital environment so that you have a productive experience.

When you enter the Coworking Space, you will have a chance to meet-and-greet briefly with fellow coworkers (by Chat), write what you plan to accomplish during the Coworking Session (in the chat), and then we will get started with the Coworking Session.

Once the Coworking Session begins, we ask that you to keep your video on, mute your microphone and get to task. The Coworking Leader will try to touch base about halfway through the Coworking Session (via Chat) to make sure those who have wandered onto unproductive endeavors can steer back on course. (Coworking Leaders may not be able to do so if they're in a meeting or deep in work themselves! So, it may be good to set yourself a timer.)

At the end of the Coworking Session, we'll do a little celebration for all that we have accomplished virtually, together!

## Where We Will Be Coworking

You will join the Virtual Coworking Session via Zoom.us, a free, Web-based meeting and phone conferencing software. (You must register for the Event in order for the Zoom link to appear!) You do not need to have a microphone and speakers as there's no audio associated with these sessions, but you do need a computer/laptop/mobile device with high-speed Internet access. You can join the Zoom meeting by PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android.

To join the Zoom Meeting, click the Event "Zoom link" and once Zoom launches, type your name if/when it asks.

I suggest you visit https://zoom.us/download#client_4meeting to download the "Zoom Client for Meetings" on your PC, Mac or Linux computer/laptop, or https://zoom.us/download#mobile_app for the iOS and Android OS device mobile app links, prior to the meeting. If you would like to familiarize yourself with Zoom or need further help joining the meeting, please visit https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362193-Joining-a-Meeting..

If you run into trouble with the Zoom Meeting software, you can join the Virtual Coworking Session via the Web browser (by clicking on the Zoom link again and canceling the pop-up when you click the Zoom link. Then, choose the text link "Join from your Browser" on the page. You will be joining the meeting in your Web browser, so you will not have all Zoom's features but at least you'll be able to join us.

If you run into any trouble, comment below and we'll try to help you out.

While rare but may happen, you may be the only one to show up in a virtual coworking session. In this case, please start working!

And with that... Happy coworking!
