I'm preparing for the upcoming RMMR Conference next week.

RMMR = Reliability, Maintenance, and Managing Risk.

I am presenting, which takes a lot of preparation. In addition, I'm looking forward to meeting new people and catching up with some folks that I enjoyed talking with last time.

One of the reasons I like conferences is meeting others who are working on a variety of projects in different industries. At a conference I attended previously, I learned about sustainable economic models which each identified with different colors. I haven't seen very much about this topic lately, but it's something I wanted to review heading into this conference - to see if people's work is related to these models and how. Here is the link to that podcast episode: Engineering in the Color Economy. What color economy do you work in?

If you're attending the RMMR conference in Pittsburgh next week, let me know!

Where do you meet up?

A few weeks ago, I posed a question to you about where you meet up with others, outside of work.

My Q: If you wanted to attend 4 events related to your work this month, what would they be? These events can be tangentially related to work and they can be virtual or in-person.

Some thought 4 events per month would be difficult, and that local chapters of professional groups have not been meeting as frequently, making it even more difficult.

Someone shared a strategy:

Instead of 4 events per month (which we were all finding difficult for our engineering professions), I'll customize a plan that fits my needs. What a great reminder to strategize with goals!

I'd still like to know what groups you're involved with, so please share your recommendations.
