World FM Day recognizes and celebrates the vital work that FM professionals contribute to business worldwide, and aims to raise the profile of the FM profession anywhere they influence the health, safety, productivity and well-being of people who utilize the built environment. During the pandemic, FM teams stood at the forefront in making environments and digital platforms available to meet unanticipated demands and were extremely important in keeping many sectors operating. Sustainability, resilience and corporate responsibility are now center stage for leaders worldwide. These topics significantly impact corporate decision making, and the facility manager stands at a crossroad where they all converge.
