Selected by members every two years at the General Assembly, IFI is led by an Executive Committee and Executive Board. Headed by the President, President Elect, Past-President, Chief Executive Officer, the IFI Executive Committee leads the charge on IFI initiatives and provides overarching governance for the Federation. An Executive Board is further established consisting of Members and Co-Opted Board Experts.
The men and women who serve to govern IFI are fundamental for our organization to carry out its mission. We thank them for their passion and commitment to further the Interiors profession at a worldwide level.
