Listen Later

Valerie Spencer is Assistant VP of Strategic Growth and Engagement at Didlake where she is passionate about creating opportunities that enrich the lives of people with disabilities, especially in the world of facility management. Mike Petrusky asks Valerie about her recent role volunteering with the Capital Chapter of IFMA to put on a local "Chapter Workplace & Expo" event where professionals shared experiences and insights on facility management and innovation. Valerie believes that the FM industry is evolving with technology, making it more accessible to individuals with limitations, so she and Mike explore the importance of creating a healthy, safe, and productive environment for all people. Innovation in the workplace is driven by technology and joining professional organizations like IFMA can provide valuable resources and support for individuals seeking collaboration and networking opportunities. Mike and Valerie offer practical advice and inspiration to help you connect with the IFMA community and share stories that will encourage you to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!
