About this episode

Podcast host Mike Petrusky shares an update on his future plans for the show, industry conferences happening this fall, and the need for continuous learning in our asset and facility management journey. He discusses recent themes that have come up this past year, especially the impact of artificial intelligence and AI agents on the built environment and reminds us that we often overestimate short-term technological changes while underestimating long-term change. Digital Twins and BIM (Building Information Modeling) are key technologies that will enhance data management and provide a more holistic view of asset life cycles, so Mike recommends a philosophy of lifelong learning, networking, and participation in professional organizations for professionals in the FM industry. Upcoming conferences such as Autodesk University and IFMA's World Workplace offer valuable opportunities, so Mike shares his appreciation for recent recognition from the IFMA community and looks to continuously improve his podcasts as he tries to inspire you to be an Asset Champion in your organization!
