About the Program
The workplace has undergone a seismic shift in a world reshaped by the pandemic. The challenges we face today—employee disengagement, trauma-informed design, distributed work models, and the redefinition of culture—demand innovative solutions and bold leadership. This session, brought to you by CoreNet Midwest Chapter, MNCREW, BOMA Greater Minneapolis, Greater St. Paul BOMA, IREM Minnesota Chapter and IFMA Minneapolis/St. Paul Chapter, dives deep into the strategies of industry leaders like CBRE, GoDaddy, and Google to navigate these uncharted waters.

As corporate real estate and facility management professionals, you are at the forefront of this transformation. This session will equip you with the insights and tools to lead through change, reimagine workspaces, and address your workforce’s emotional and psychological needs.
What You’ll Learn
- The Human Side of Design: How to move beyond furniture and curate meaningful experiences that resonate with employees.
- Trauma-Informed Design: Understanding the lasting impact of the pandemic and designing spaces that support mental and emotional well-being.

- Behavioral Economics in Design: Using nudges and intuitive design to influence behavior and create healthier, more productive environments.

By the end of this session, you will have actionable strategies for confident leadership in an era of constant change. You will also gain a fresh perspective on creating spaces that truly matter—spaces that go beyond functionality to foster connection, creativity, and well-being.
