30 years back, 3 trends for the future

Report

Overview

The Institute of Workplace and Facilities Management (IWFM) has marked the 30^th anniversary of its founding with the release of new research, ’30 years back, 3 trends for the future’.  

Developed with sector experts, the work traces the progress of workplace and facilities management (WFM) from the evolution of offices to the rise of digital innovation, changing workspace objectives to a focus on sustainability and employee experience.

Today - post-Brexit, post-pandemic and in increasingly competitive conditions - workplace and facilities professionals are ‘lynchpin’ players in organisations.

Over three decades, IWFM has forged a framework of standards, qualifications and best practice to professionalise this critical sector and promote it as a career of choice, helping businesses to unlock extra value, drive productivity and build resilience for the future.
