In this episode of Facilities in Focus, host Mackenna Moralez takes listeners behind the scenes of one of the facilities management’s leading trade shows NFMT West.
With NFMT West taking place November 3-4 at the Horseshoe Event Center in Las Vegas, she sits down with senior event coordinator Becky Cofta to discuss what goes into creating the conference and why continuing education remains so important for today’s facility professionals.
From expert-led educational sessions and emerging industry trends to networking opportunities and the value of bringing hundreds of exhibitors and facility leaders together under one roof, Becky shares an inside look at what attendees can expect from this year’s event.
Whether you’re planning to attend NFMT West or simply looking for ways to continue growing in your facilities career, this conversation is a reminder that learning doesn’t stop when the workday ends—and investing in your professional development can open the door to new ideas, connections and opportunities.
The Facilities in Focus podcast publishes bi-weekly. The sixth season will cover high performers in the facilities management industry.
