On the agenda at the recently-completed BOMA International Winter Business Meeting were the results of BOMA International’s recent "Pulse" survey, which identified some familiar concerns as influences on future business operations and planning.

The number one concern? Local taxes and fees. 

The second most pressing issue is that of maintaining a qualified workforce, particularly as Baby Boomers begin to retire. At BOMA/NY, we’re supplementing the recruitment work of our member companies with support for veterans hiring programs and student initiatives, as well as providing, on average, a dozen scholarships a year for those seeking professional designations, alongside a variety of educational opportunities, seminars and courses almost every month.

Rounding out the top five concerns were: demands on work-life balance, emerging technologies and the state of the economy.

The leaders of local BOMA associations offered an optimistic view of the year ahead, predicting strong growth in committee involvement, event attendance and educational participation. All expressed a determination to meet the challenges revealed in the Pulse Survey "head-on in 2015 and beyond," reports BOMA International.
