This year at Facility Fusion Chicago, we are trying something new. We will offer two Pre-Conference component leader sessions starting with a new leader orientation at 11am on Monday, March 19th. There is no additional charge to attend if you are registered for Facility Fusion. This an excellent way to invest in current and future leaders, so please consider sending as many leaders as possible.

Did you recently become a new IFMA leader? Or would you like an IFMA Leader 101 refresher? If so, please join us for lunch while we take a deep dive into association management and component operations.
