The Evolution of Facility Management
Facility management has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past several decades. What once focused primarily on maintenance and operational tasks has evolved into a strategic discipline that drives organizational value. Today’s facility managers are expected to be business partners who understand how physical environments support organizational missions and contribute to competitive advantage.
This evolution reflects broader changes in how organizations view their physical assets. Buildings are no longer just cost centers to be minimized—they’re strategic investments that can enhance performance, attract talent, support innovation, and demonstrate organizational values. Research consistently shows that well-designed and managed facilities improve employee engagement, reduce turnover, increase productivity, and support organizational resilience.
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated many of these trends, highlighting the critical role that facility managers play in organizational adaptation and resilience. Facility professionals led efforts to create safe work environments, redesign spaces for new work patterns, and implement technologies that support hybrid operations. These experiences demonstrated that effective facility management requires both technical expertise and strategic leadership capabilities.
As facility management continues to evolve, the professionals who thrive will be those who can think strategically, lead effectively, and create value through thoughtful facility decisions. This course is designed to develop these capabilities, providing you with both the conceptual foundation and practical tools needed for success in this dynamic field.
