If you think coworking success is just about scaling fast and filling seats, Tashi Dorjee has a totally different take — and it's working.

Tashi, Head of Flex at JLL Australia, joins us to share how his team is building flexible workspaces for governments, universities, and landlords — with a fresh model that throws traditional coworking goals out the window. From a rainforest startup to creating award-winning coworking ecosystems, Tashi's path is anything but ordinary...and it's shaping the future of flex.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why JLL's Flex model prioritizes solving landlord problems over aggressive space expansion.

• How government and university projects like Quantum Terminal and Melbourne Connect are changing the coworking landscape.

• The "Flex Light" strategy and why a full coworking buildout isn't always the answer.

• How coworking spaces can integrate with asset management to drive real value for landlords.

• Tashi's passion project outside of JLL — building a YouTube channel for the next generation (and a pretty awesome legacy).

If you want to understand where flex is heading — especially from the landlord's perspective — you don't want to miss this one.
