Connex

New York State of Mind and we meant it.

ConnexFM hit New York City for a packed week this week. We kicked off with FM Live hosted by Estée Lauder for a morning of sharp conversations that highlighted industry hot topics for the luxury industry. The momentum carried straight into our Summer Bash, where the networking was on point and, naturally, a few Coin Checks had to happen.

A big shout out to our FM Live & Summer Bash sponsors who helped make these amazing events happen: Total Fire Protection & Verantum.

Failure is part of every system

But most FM strategies are built for the “ideal scenario,” not the reality of shifting team strengths, priorities, and constraints.

That gap is where efficiency breaks down.

The White Belt Certification Program is designed to bridge that gap, building adaptable, resilient teams that save time, money, and prevent declines in team performance and morale.

Register before the deadline on Friday: https://go.connex.fm/4e8vD6J
