Welcome to The Good Company Journal
This is where we share ideas about work, community, creativity, and the changing workplace. Sometimes we'll explore research. Sometimes we'll tell stories. Sometimes we'll simply reflect on what we're learning from the people who walk through our doors every day.
Whether you work from home, lead a small business, collaborate with a team, or are simply looking for a better way to work, our hope is that you'll leave with one thoughtful idea you can put to use.

The challenge isn't that you're working during summer. The challenge is feeling like you're spending the best months of the y

Why I Started Good Company Workspace
I never imagined myself opening a business. Until, suddenly, I did. Looking back, something had been brewing under the surface for a while.

I ran for City Council, got laid off from the corporate job, explored launching a youth volunteer corps, took graduate HR courses, and was moving toward a long-coming divorce. Lif
