Doug Dale and Ford Yeager share their experiences from major transformation projects that led to phenomenal productivity increases. They show how to overcome knowledge and cultural challenges, in all stages of the process leading up to "Game Day" - the day when the maintenance work is executed.

Dr Monique Beedles - Setting Strategic Objectives

"Setting Strategic Objectives is one of the key roles of the Board. For objectives to be achieved they need to be operationalised. Converting corporate objectives into asset management objectives is one of the ways this is done. I have too often been into companies who proudly show me their strategic plan, then I ask to see their monthly reports and there is no connection between the two."
Dr Monique Beedles, PhD in Strategic Management, Board Member and author of the book "Asset Management for Directors" shares her unique perspective.
