Offices are designed for people, and yet, as a Facilities Manager, it's easy to get bogged down in the concrete, and the building's needs. This is just a reminder to focus on the people that work in the buildings, and a celebration of the role of the Facilities Manager in creating a safe and hygienic space in which people can work productively.

Behind the concrete Facilities Management in 2014

You’re trying to keep everyone happy

But managing a Facility isn’t easy

It’s not the building, it’s the people!

Everyone has a gripe and a moan

Too hot, too cold, too noisy, too quiet.

You’re constantly balancing

different priorities,

and being asked to paint the moon…

with a single pot of paint

And then just when you’re ready

to pull your hair out

or perhaps someone else’s…

You make someone’s day…

and all of a sudden you realise

why this job is so special.

Your people spend longer in your building than in their own homes,

and that means you have the chance to

affect how they feel about their lives

It’s up to you to make sure that …

they have a great environment where they can be productive

and that they’re kept safe and healthy

And happy!

And that’s pretty inspiring…

if you think about it

Because you’re not actually

managing a building,

you’re looking after people

And caring for the space in which

they spend most of their time

But not so fast…

Your suppliers have to think the same way

Because otherwise, what’s the point.

You need them to deliver on your ideas

And that’s where I’m hoping we can help
