Conference 2022

The IWFM Conference is back - and we think it’s our best one yet. We have a classy new venue, a brand-new host, and an outstandingly talented line up. Members - as the heart of IWFM - have been at the forefront of our thinking when creating this face-to-face event; both in the way we’ve put it together and how we have priced it.

After everything we’ve all been through, and mindful of the squeeze on budgets, we want to enable as many members as possible to participate in what we believe will be an unforgettable event. So, this year we’re offering IWFM members an exceptionally competitive delegate rate.

With an unmissable speaker line up combined with topical, practical break-out sessions, this programme will leave you inspired to be your own ‘agent of change’. There will also be ample opportunity for networking and drinks on the rooftop terrace.

IWFM Conference 2022: ‘Agents of change’

In a change-charged agenda, renowned thought leaders will offer a future-focused take on the future of work, technology and innovation, and wellbeing. Keynotes will be complimented by practitioner-led sessions, weaving their ideas into real life and practical takeaways.

Innovator, engineer, inspirational leader and Conference host Yewande Akinola MBE will open the discussion with her reflections on being an agent of change; and she’ll keep the conversation and ideas flowing throughout the day, culminating in a keynote on wellbeing from the inimitable Ruby Wax OBE, actor, writer and mental health campaigner.

Before we get to Ruby, however, there’s much more to inspire and inform you.

Author, commentator and blogger Christine Armstrong will discuss the future of work – a subject that has never been more topical. After the biggest workplace shift in over a century, how can people and organisations thrive and grow in this new paradigm?

On the topic of risk and decision making for leadership, delegates will benefit from the expertise of Professor Kevin Fong OBE, consultant in anaesthesia at University College Hospital and a specialist in risk, decision making and innovation.

Lastly, what is workplace and facilities management’s role in creating effective, sustainable workplace change? Futurist Matt O’Neill will pose that very question in an interactive session, so make sure you bring your thinking caps!

Plus, there are breakout sessions, exhibition stands and of course networking on the beautiful rooftop terrace.
