WeWork\u2019s community team members are the soul of the We community. Heart of We<\/a><\/strong> highlights how their hard work and passion improves the daily lives of WeWork members across the globe.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bernadette Connelly met her boyfriend at WeWork. She has lived with four roommates, all of whom are employed by WeWork. Nearly all of her friends work at WeWork, says Connelly, a community lead at London\u2019s WeWork 21 Soho Square,<\/a> who joined the company after being referred by the daughter of her mom\u2019s best friend\u2019s. \u201cAlmost everyone in my life is a WeWork person!\u201d says Connelly, laughing. \u201cAnd those who aren\u2019t, I\u2019m trying to get them hired.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many things Connelly, 23, loves about WeWork, one of which is the values she and her colleagues share. Another is that she deeply appreciates the diversity of those colleagues; her WeWork community includes many different heritages, including Vietnamese, Chinese, South African, Pakistani, Italian, and French. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGrowing up where I did in Essex, everyone was the same race as me and had the same accent as me,\u201d says Connelly. \u201cAt WeWork, differences are celebrated,\u201d she says, adding that this has led to a lot of good food, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This combination of difference and unity is what makes WeWork so special to Connelly. She pointed to how WeWork\u2019s core values of community and authenticity are key. \u201cRoles and responsibilities can be learned,\u201d she says, \u201cbut values are deeper parts of each of us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

\u201cWeWork brought anyone that I ever needed in my life to me and put them in my pocket,\u201d says Connelly (center). <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Part of what attracted Connelly to her boyfriend, Yet Lau, were those shared values. Lau is a technology services lead whom Connelly met during an office Wi-Fi outage when Lau was deployed to help. \u201cWe all came together, running around like crazy to help Yet solve the problem,\u201d says Connelly. She couldn\u2019t help but notice how diligent and responsible Lau was when it came to his job, noting his tenacity and how much he cared about getting things right. \u201cThose qualities really attracted me to him as a person.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At home with her roommates, too, shared values have gone a long way. \u201cI always found it hard to find my tribe, my chosen family,\u201d she says. \u201cWeWork brought anyone that I ever needed in my life to me and put them in my pocket.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WeWork spoke to Connelly about what she does in her downtime, her ideal dinner guest, and the one WeWork member who has had the most impact on her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Downtime pursuits: <\/strong>\u201cI’m vegan and celiac, so eating for me is pretty tricky,\u201d says Connelly, who loves cooking as well as discovering restaurants that serve food she can actually eat. The best thing she cooks? \u201cI make a cheesy carbonara made of cauliflower and nuts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Member who has had the most impact on her:<\/strong> Didi Kan<\/a>, a therapist and former member at WeWork Aviation House<\/a>, showed Connelly how to find balance. Whenever Kan noticed Connelly working late, he\u2019d remind her how important it is to find time for herself. \u201cThough he could have used his time to take paying clients, he would offer to sit down and have a session with me,\u201d says Connelly. \u201cHis stance was, the more you\u2019re looking after yourself, the better you\u2019ll be at what you do.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who she\u2019d most like to have dinner with: <\/strong>Jen Berrent, co-president and chief legal officer of WeWork. \u201cShe gave such an inspiring speech at our Global Summit in 2018,\u201d says Connelly, remembering that Berrent spoke about inclusivity and how WeWork welcomes everyone<\/a>. That messaging resonated with Connelly, who was raised in an accepting environment and knows the value of inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI grew up in a family that was open and accepting of anything I was, or wanted to be,\u201d Connelly recalls. She adds that before WeWork, she had never worked in a place that fostered this same kind of openness, and it makes her proud to be a part of the company.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her favorite place in the world: <\/strong>London. Connelly is grateful that she\u2019s had the opportunity to visit a number of countries, but there\u2019s no place like home\u2014especially because London is home to everyone she loves. \u201cAlso, vegan food is easy to come by in London\u2014less so elsewhere!\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Core values: <\/strong>Togetherness. \u201cI\u2019m passionate about people!\u201d she says. Although she\u2019d worked at companies where the people were pleasant, she hadn\u2019t experienced the kind of team effort she\u2019s found at WeWork. \u201cEveryone is supportive and on board,\u201d she says. \u201cGratitude is my second favorite value because I\u2019m so grateful to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
