Renee Stratton, CID, LEED AP ID&C is Director of Space Management and Planning at Procon Consulting, LLC, where she advises clients on interior renovations and dealing with change in the workplace. Mike Petrusky talks with Renee about volunteering at IFMA and the networking fun, educational opportunities, and powerful partnerships that come as a result of years of committed involvement with a local Chapter. Renee shares why investing in associations and conferences is valuable for connecting our FM community and she discusses strategies for change management as organizations seek to reduce their real estate costs. Of course, Mike asks Renee about favorite music choices, which leads to singing and a recap of the “FM Innovator Summit” that took place in Houston. Finally, Renee recommends a business book that was (definitely NOT) written by “Napoleon Dynamite”!
