SECTION I
Background and Organization
This opening section deals with the nature of facility management, particularly its relationship to the business environment it supports. We emphasize the need for the facility manager to be a business leader and describe just what that means. We discuss what organizations and executives expect of facility managers and present a profile of success for facility managers. Finally, we look at facility organizations that can be adapted to meet the requirements of various organizations, and discuss the increasingly difficult staffing issues to fill those organizations.
