A virtual CAMPUS for Asset Management (AM) practitioners to provide visibility into the adoption of AM in US organizations.
People, Sources, and Ideas are all one item this week. Dr. John Wyatt, Esq. has established an asset management undergraduate program at California Polytechnic University, Pomona. He has asked the Asset Leadership Network to co-teach one 2-hour summer school class on ISO 55K and the importance of asset leadership to guide proper asset management. Dr. Wyatt also asked for pre-class links to ISO 55K information for his students to gain background understanding before the class. If this is what students are learning, it might be a good idea for professionals to have a solid grasp on these sources. Share this with the growing number of leaders who are starting to explore asset management.

Living Asset Management Think Tank presents:
“Enhancing and Sustaining Value Delivered by AM”
Wednesday 20 July – 6 pm Washington, D.C. time
The Australian Asset Management Council and the ALN are co-promoting this event. In 2020, the Living Asset Management Think Tank published “Living Asset Management Maturity”. It included many of the steps that Glenn Schumacher “Shoey” has taken in implementing asset management in his career. The steps are pivotal to the asset management maturity journey, and the basis for delivering sustained outcomes from AM. Hear about some of the key factors and join the discussion with the international Living Asset Management Think Tank, including our colleagues, Peter Kohler and Sally Nugent, who were among the founders of the Asset Management Council, John Harwick, Martin Kerr, and Michael Killen.
