VIDEO INTRODUCTION:
Hi everybody,
On the 6th of November, WeWork filed for bankruptcy.
Today, its share price has dropped from 100 dollars in 2022 to just $1.6, thats a drop of 98.4% in just 1 year!!
But did you know that back in 2019, this same company was considered to be revolution in the American start up ecosystem because they were valued at a mind-boggling 47 Billion dollars!!
Fun fact, they commanded a 47 billion dollar valuation without ever making a single dollar in profits!!
And this failure of we work is not just another case study but very important bsuiness lesson for the investors and entrepreneurs all around the world on How to build disastrous company!! So if you are an entreprenur or a student of business just like Apple serves as an inspiration on how to build a business, wework is a classic example how not to build a business.
Which is why this case study is very important for all us to study!!
So lets dive into and understand,
How did WeWork rise to become a 47 billion-dollar company with no profits at all?
And after becoming a so called Legend, how did it fail miserably?
And, lastly, as students of business what are the failure lessons that we need to learn from the fall of WeWork?
Think School is a Digital School that we all deserved, but never had

In this era of patience less viewers who seek satisfaction in 30/60 seconds through short duration contents(shorts/reels). Your videos have the potential to pull people and make them watch the whole video with patience even it's 20+ minutes long. . . I have experienced it. Now i prefer long contents over shorts/reels because of you @ThinkSchool. I got love towards Business case studies because of you. Thank you for everything guys. Keep enlighting ✨.

Wework India is actually doing very well and is generating growth and profits according to their CEO Kiran Virwani , "WeWork India’s Virwani said that despite the challenges brought by the pandemic, the Indian arm emerged profitable early last year. He said that it ended FY23 with a revenue of INR 1,400 Cr and INR 250 Cr in earnings." Can you make a part 2 of this video highlighting what wework india did right.

IDK about USA. But WeWork is the only (single one) company in entire India that gives decent coworking/shared office spaces, there is no alternative to it. So it's easy to make it profitable. Real estate prices in India are very fair, the prices are very much proportional to what real people can afford while keeping their affairs profitable. And unlike USA & post 2015 India, where you can not survive without loans or other forms of cash to burn.

@riscnx 6 ай бұрын

@@notgoodtime A lot of big companies use WeWork too. For example the WeWork in Malviya Nagar, has NO coworking space, is only for offers large office space like entire floor or officer area for 50+people. Weather big, small or startup. After working in WeWork anyone would hate to work in traditional offices, and WeWork is not that expensive (their margins is probably very low), so it's always a better option than building/managing your own office.

Just a suggestion. Even if this won't reach to you , i still think no one could do a better job than you in explaining the why in current big businesses getting success or failure.

Hi bro, after consistently watching your videos for nearly more than 2 years, now I am able to understand the story behind the numbers and also able to get a holistic picture of how businesses work and how nuantical things play a big role, etc...., But one request, please make a video on how to do research? even though things got clearer as I kept on learning, I thought something was lagging to make a big decision out of it, if you help us by making a video for that, It will be very helpful for us. Because, when I read an annual report, it seems too overwhelming, it's not that I am not ready to spend enough time on that, It's that I don't know whether the thing I am doing is correct or not, also, I saw in our videos that there are different sources for information containing graphs and data, how would you get that, where to look at for reliable information and so on...... I hope you'll help us. Thank You.

Brilliant case study as always Ganesh, hats off. 1. Sustainable growth should always be prioritised over rapid expansion. 2. Never mess with supply and demand factor, otherwise it will mess you up. 3. An org can never survive when the roots are corrupted, in this case, Neumann. 4. Always be on the lookout for developments that are about to mess up your business model, in this case, covid lockdowns and rise of work from homes.

In my opinion, the biggest reason for downfall of Wework was that they considered themselves a tech firm till the very end but in reality they were a real estate firm. Founders need to understand that just by using technology in your operations you do not become a tech firm!
