Sustainability and its related topics have become key issues for facilities managers to tackle. Moreso, facility managers are looking at what they can do with their environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals. However, getting started with these goals can be a little daunting at first. 

This Facilities In Focus video features an interview with George Schmidt, global lead for FM and soft services at JLL, about where facilities managers can get going with their ESG goals for their organization.

Once a facility manager understands where they’re at in their efforts, their journey can begin.
