TEAM MEMBERS



2020-2022 COUNCIL LEADERSHIP



OUR CURRENT BOARD


is comprised of four elected officers and four appointed chairs. Corporate Facilities Council officers are elected in June for two-year terms beginning July 1 and can serve up to two terms. Officers participate in a monthly conference call that includes the Council Resource Manager at IFMA headquarters.


As in any volunteer organization, the council depends upon the participation of its members. Being an officer requires just a few hours a month of a member's time. Business is conducted by email and phone, and the most time-consuming tasks are the activities surrounding participation in Facilities Fusion and World Workplace. The board seeks those who would volunteer to take on specific tasks with these events, and with other duties such as membership and education.
