March Member of the Month: Lucas Wassan, Corporate Facilities Manager at Lamar Advertising Company
Lucas Wassan is the Corporate Facilities Manager at Lamar Advertising Company, one of the largest Out of Home advertising companies in North America, with over 360,000 displays across 45 states and Canada.
Lucas has been a member of IFMA Baton Rouge since 2014. With a background in construction and building maintenance, he turned to IFMA for continued learning and connection when stepping into the broader challenges of facility management. After attending a local chapter luncheon and connecting with like minded professionals, he joined the following week.
One of Lucas’s most meaningful contributions to IFMA has been helping create FM Solutions, a forum designed for facility managers to share experiences, resources, and insights in a low pressure environment. What started as an idea has grown into a valuable space filled with knowledge, collaboration, and plenty of laughs.
Outside of work, Lucas enjoys playing music, spending time with friends, and serving his church.
Lucas’s advice: “Consider yourself the organizational glue that binds people and strategy. Communication is a skill, hone it.”
