International Facility Management Association 

 
"It was a mind expanding engagement working with GLOBALSTRAT on the International Facility Management Association’s, (IFMA), global organization strategy.
 
IFMA had previously used GLOBALSTRAT in an engagement to support growth in Europe, then based upon the continued relevant content and research produced by GLOBALSTRAT it was an easy decision to engage them again to help IFMA evaluate the support for a global chapter network.
 
GLOBALSTRAT conducted an initial research study of our current situation, then engaged our Board and Executive Management Team to consider different alternatives. Some of these alternatives were very bold steps forward.
 
GLOBALSTRAT then worked with the Team to put more data and information around the concepts. The ultimate decision was to adopt a hybrid approach which has now lead to a major global collaboration which will transform IFMA.
 
We are very appreciative of GLOBALSTRAT’s role and guidance in this process.
 
I highly recommend considering GLOBALSTRAT in your organizations strategic planning process as even when you are a national organization you still have to consider global issues.”
