IFMA Foundation November e-Newsletter

IFMA Foundation

The IFMA Foundation November quarterly e-newsletter is here! 

In this issue, you will learn more about recent IFMA Foundation events, including the success of the groundbreaking Workplace Strategy Research Summit held at Wokefield Park, England this past June where luminaries in the field discussed the future of work and the workplace. Some activities held at IFMA’s World Workplace in New Orleans this past September are also highlighted in this e-newsletter; including the Academic Awards Reception where more than 35 students received their well-deserved FM scholarships.

The IFMA Foundation acts on behalf of the profession and is primarily supported through the generosity of FM professionals, individuals and organizations that support the future of FM.  Your contributions of time and financial resources are key to the Foundation’s efforts to make FM a career of choice and create career pathways for our future FMs.
