Overview

There are three types of smarts that you need to succeed as an asset management professional. These are the fundamental skills and abilities that underpin success in your career. They're needed at every level, whether you're just starting out as an apprentice or whether you've moved through to more senior levels.


  1. Tech Smarts - the fundamental technical skills that you need for your trade or your profession

  2. Biz Smarts - your business and management skills 

  3. Street Smarts - your human and communication skills


This FREE video series will show you how to build on each of these ‘smarts’ to develop your leadership skills as an asset manager.


This FREE video series complements my latest book Leadership Assets. 

I’ve written Leadership Assets and developed this short series of videos for asset managers in all stages of their asset management career. Leadership skills are important to develop from day one as part of your career journey.

Testimonials

Monique has provided our asset management team with an edge to understand and provide solutions to the senior management level.

Monique offers a different perspective and opens up a new way of thinking.

Monique is a thought leader in the Asset Management and Board leadership areas. This doesn’t come from simply pushing a single solution. It comes from bringing the wealth of knowledge gained through engaging with a very broad network and then applying strategic thought when proposing a solution.

Monique has an amazing ability to harness people from disparate backgrounds to provide different perspectives on how to address problems.

Monique's perspective

Over the last 20 years I've spent a lot of time in many industries, but always with a similar focus, where asset management is central to their strategy. I've worked primarily with boards and executive teams and senior leaders in asset management, in industries like mining, railways, ports, utilities, power, water and defence. 

I'm passionate about the importance of asset management across industries and in different types of organisations. I'm also really passionate about empowering leaders in asset management to reach their leadership potential and to empower their own teams. When you have leading people working within your organisation who are passionate about what they do, it helps you to become a leading organisation: in your industry, in your sector, and in the wider world.

My book Leadership Assets , and my training and coaching programs, aim to empower you as a leader in asset management to realise your own leadership potential. I'm really excited about the outcomes that we'll see from this. My earlier book, Asset Management for Directors, was written to help leaders, including board directors and senior executives, learn about the importance of asset management in their companies and their own role in asset management - you could call that asset management for leaders. Now Leadership Assets is all about leadership for asset managers.
