Schuyler Vorster, founder and director of the IC | IC, says that the global increase in the demand for shared office spaces has much to do with the coworking business model which is based on the importance of community, innovation, and providing ways for businesses to run leaner.
What is Schuyler Vorster, LIFE-MISSION in one sentence? | To look after others so that I can look after my family and myself.
What has been your biggest failure / learning experience? | I don’t have one, I try a lot of things so I’m used to set backs which I try to learn from.

On a psychological or mind-set level, how do you use your mind and how do you think in a specific way to help you achieve your goals and realize your ambitions? | I think about them and visualize every day.

What is the best advice you have ever received? | Know when to quit and start something else.
