What
is IFMA?
IFMA is a member-centered association
that exists to guide and develop facility management
professionals.
In support of its members, IFMA promotes the
Facility Management profession by providing
leadership, recognition and standards of excellence.
I have really enjoyed being part of the Cincinnati Chapter of IFMA for the past seven years. I have met and become involved with a dynamic group of professionals, both facility managers and vendors, and I look forward to sharing these experiences with others. I am leading an executive board and committee chairs committed to offering our members opportunities for professional development and networking that will raise their value to the organizations that they serve.
We have embarked on a strategic planning exercise to effectively position the Chapter to meet the needs of our members. We encourage all to seek out opportunities to become involved in Chapter activities. It is only through our collective efforts that the Chapter remains relevant and continues to grow with the chance to give back to our professional community and the community at large.
I would like to invite all, members and non-members, to participate in our monthly educational programs. I encourage you also to participate in IFMA World Workplace with its offering of educational, trade show, advocacy and social experiences.
I would like to thank everyone in our Cincinnati Chapter for your continued support through membership, partnership, donations and program attendance. It is through your support that the Chapter remains financially viable and a pleasure to be part of for all of its members.
