BIFMA Hosts Networking Breakfast at NeoCon

Brian Ramsey, founder of Making Way Services, ignited a conversation around embracing transition moments during the BIFMA event, noting that external forces inevitably impact organizational changes. His presentation, aptly called “Change Happens,” offered designers insights on why companies struggle with change and how to power through it. Take a look at event snaps below.
