The Entrepreneurs' Alphabet of Values
by Stacey Zackin, WORK_SPACE Manager
K is for KNOWING
Both the French writer, historian, and philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) and Ben Parker (Spiderman’s Uncle) declared that “with great power comes great responsibility.” It was English philosopher, statesmen, and scientist Sir Francis Bacon (1551-1626) who observed that “knowledge is power.” Wise and profound proclamations but it begs one to ask, what is
knowledge
, what type of power does it wield in my own life, and do I employ it responsibly?

Featured Staff Person: Lori Dusza
I love my job as I get to greet visitors and take care of our members here at WORK_SPACE where I wear many hats. I process membership agreements, meeting space reservations, and building maintenance requests. I keep our accounts and calendar up to date when I’m not giving tours to the interesting people who walk in every day to inquire about a Coworking membership, a meeting space venue, or to view the amazing art we have throughout the building. When I take those hats off, I put on my swimsuit and go to my other job, teaching swimming and water aerobics to adults through the
Dept. of Leisure, Families & Recreation
