Question 8

As a Workspace Admin:

I’ve just received 2 new workspace requests.
1 is for an initiative called Q Preparedness and another is for a Romulan Trade Deal project.
I’m not going to just approve all requests.
I want to ensure that creating a workspace is the right decision for my org.
How would I gather information to best make that decision?

Answer 8

Design a process that ports member requests into a private multi-workspace channel.

Members are asked to provide info with each request.

Question 9

What are my options for responding to a member’s request for a new workspace?

Answer 9

Approve or deny the request for a new workspace OR follow up with the requestor to understand if a multi-workspace channel is more appropriate.

a project that requires members from different workspaces to work together may be better served by a multi-workspace channel than by a new workspace.

Question 10

What do I do? Let’s start with the request for Q Preparedness. What’s the first question I should look to answer in making my decision?

Answer 10

Is it a cross-functional project?

Q Preparedness is a cross-functional project with members in the Security and Legal departments.

Question 11

Ok, so it looks like Q Preparedness is cross-functional. What is the next question I should look to answer in making my decision?

Answer 11

What is the expected scope of the project?

If the project is cross-functional, then you should ask the requester about the expected scope of the project. For Q Preparedness, the scope is small and simple.

Question 12

The team wants to develop a few strategies for responding to the appearance of Q. How should I respond to their request?

Answer 12

Create a multi-workspace channel.

the project is cross-functional, but simple and small in scope. A multi-workspace channel would fit the needs of the team.

Question 13

For the project that is cross-functional, large and complex in scope. What should I do?

Answer 13

Create a new workspace. B/c the project is large and complex, so you should create a new workspace. Once approved, the person who requested the new workspace will become the Workspace Owner and can invite members to join.
