Quotes:

"Don't pontificate. Go make decisions. There will be a good one, there'll be a bad one, but whatever it is, you'll learn from it and you'll make a better one the next time."

(10:11) - Stan Mitchell

"A lot of people think FM's are about building services and assets and that kind of stuff, but it's not. It ultimately is all about people."

(19:09) - Stan Mitchell

"If you have a common language across the world, across all those countries and organizations, that provides facility management services to their people... then we have, we've got a common way to move forward."

(21:21) - Randy Olson

"If it's all about people, can we create a standard about how FM affects people and how people affect our ability to deliver FM."

(25:48) - Stan Mitchell
