WeWork CEO on office market, return-to-office, and WeWork's future

In this clip Greg Miley digs into how flex, a 5% segment of total office space in Paris, is seeing 20% of the office demand. Listen in to our conversation to dig into insights and observations from a leader who has a career spanning FlexiOffices, The Instant Group, WeWork, Kitt, Desana and now Clockwise Offices.

📊 In markets like New York City, Miami, Dallas, and Atlanta, foot traffic is approaching, or even exceeding, pre-2019 levels, especially in industries with strong return-to-office momentum. This resurgence reflects a broader shift: companies are recommitting to physical office space in key business hubs, and real estate strategies are evolving to meet the moment. Preferred Office Network supports this shift with access to 1,200+ flexible office locations, including fully serviced spaces in the nation’s highest-demand urban markets.🌐 Whether scaling teams, rebalancing a portfolio, or establishing a presence in key metros, agility, consistency, and speed are critical.

When Think Tank Cowork first opened, filling offices felt like trial-and-error. Social media, events, even door-to-door outreach—it all brought in the wrong people. Founder Shane Kidwell came to a realization: “People don’t just trip over a coworking space while walking around town. They’re sitting at home or in a traditional office, searching for something different.” That shift sparked a new strategy: using Google Ads to target only the people actively looking for workspace. The result? Occupancy jumped from ~50% to 95%, with a waitlist for private offices. More importantly, Shane stopped wasting time on unqualified leads and started focusing on serious members who were ready to join.

A leading coworking company is betting big on the '15-minute city' concept, starting with a new workspace in North Florida that could change how locals think about office life.

Serviced offices became a go-to option during Covid when uncertainty made long-term commitments risky. But with things now back to normal, does this model still make sense? For companies with clear long-term plans, a leased office often works better. Frequent relocations not only mean repeating the whole search and setup exercise but can also signal instability to clients and partners. Serviced offices also come at a premium — every cost carries a mark-up from the provider. In contrast, a leased setup gives you more control over expenses and lets you create a space that truly reflects your brand and culture. Maybe it’s time to rethink whether convenience today is worth the recurring cost tomorrow.

As London prepares for a major transformation, calling for over one million square metres of new office space by 2040, the conversation around how and where we work continues to evolve. Rising demand for adaptable, well-connected, and cost-effective work environments is shaping the next generation of business spaces. For many companies, the solution lies just outside the capital, locations that combine accessibility with value, flexibility, and community.
