He shares how they've quietly built one of the most important financial institutions of our time, originating over $250 billion annually.

PT Asset Management CEO Sean Dranfield joined Proactive's Steve Darling to discuss current bond market dynamics and the investment approach behind the firm's Performance Trust Total Return Bond ETF. Dranfield addressed market concerns around volatility, noting that despite global uncertainty, the bond market has shown relative stability. “The actual bond market hasn't been as volatile as it has been historically,” he said, referencing the ten-year U.S. Treasury. He explained that higher coupon income has helped offset price swings, resulting in less dramatic movement than equities. As an example, Dranfield noted that someone buying a ten-year Treasury on April 4th would have seen only a 3.5% drawdown from peak to trough, compared to an 18% drop in the S&P 500. He emphasized the lower risk profile of bonds, their role in diversification, and the certainty of income they offer in a broader portfolio. Turning to the ETF itself, Dranfield described it as a “best ideas type fund” specifically designed to give European investors access to U.S. bond markets. Importantly, he stressed that the fund is “rate-agnostic”—not based on predictions about the direction of interest rates—but structured to perform well across both rising and falling rate environments. The fund's flexible strategy seeks to manage risk while identifying value across different segments of the fixed-income market. #proactiveinvestors #hanetf #PTAssetManagement #BondETF #TotalReturn #ShapeManagement #InvestmentStrategies #BondMarket #InterestRates #USInvesting #StructuredCredit #EuropeanInvestors #FinanceInterview
From Blue Collar Roots to Boardroom Success: Intrapreneurship, Culture, and Growth with Ken Rusk In this powerful episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with Ken Rusk, author of Blue Collar Cash, to explore how alignment, action, and authentic leadership can transform both lives and businesses. Ken shares his incredible journey—from a blue-collar background to building a thriving franchise organization—grounded in the philosophy of intrapreneurship and a deep commitment to his employees' futures. We discuss why businesses excel when individual and organizational goals are aligned, creating what I call a synergistic momentum that fuels performance and retention. I also reflect on my time leading teams in the Asset Management division for Fortune 500 clients. We implemented a unique collaborative debriefing strategy that brought together cross-project teams, fostering camaraderie and making team members more agile and interchangeable. This approach not only increased efficiency but also drew the attention of global leadership for its impact on client growth without the need for added consultants. Ken and I dive into the critical role of employee development and cultural growth. He underscores the importance of helping employees visualize their goals and stay motivated within an organization that values and nurtures their ambitions. I expand on how culture isn't just an internal function—it's something customers feel. A thriving culture strengthens an organization's resilience and ability to navigate disruption. Ken's bestselling book Blue Collar Cash—inspired by letters he wrote to his daughter during a health crisis—has unexpectedly become a blueprint for corporate teams aiming to build stronger, more connected workforces. It's now used in team-building and leadership development programs across the country. We wrap up with a focus on entrepreneurial growth through action. Ken and I align on this simple truth: growth doesn't come from theory—it comes from action. Whether you're reading a book, taking a course, or listening to this podcast, the key is to implement, not just absorb. Ken also invites listeners to visit kenrusk.com to learn more about his book, online course, and consulting services designed to empower individuals and teams. Book: Blue Collar Cash

This episode a great deep dive into asset management with arguably the premier asset management system on the market today. I've been working with Cartegraph since 2010 and have been very impressed with their software and vision for constant improvement. Join me as I welcome Jon Kremer, self proclaimed Product CEO for the Cartegraph Asset Management System at OpenGov, and we talk about how clients are using Cartegraph today, how it has evolved over the decades, and where it is going in the future. Enjoy!https://opengov.com/products/asset-management/AI Generated Episode Description:Every public works professional eventually confronts the challenge of asset management. How do you track thousands of infrastructure elements, maintain them efficiently, and plan for their eventual replacement? It's a question that combines technology, human behavior, and financial planning in ways that can make or break a department's effectiveness.John Kramer, who leads product management for OpenGov's Enterprise Asset Management system, formerly known as, takes us through the fascinating evolution of asset management systems. From his early days implementing solutions for municipalities across America to his current role designing the future of these platforms, Kramer shares insights that apply to organizations of every size.The conversation explores how asset management has transformed from paper-based workflows to cloud systems accessible from smartphones. What's remarkable is how the fundamentals remain consistent—you're still tracking the same basic information about signs, water mains, and park equipment—while the methods for collecting and using that data have revolutionized daily operations. As Kramer explains, success depends on a "three-legged stool" of products, people, and processes working together.We dive into implementation strategies that work, discussing how starting with smaller, focused rollouts often proves more effective than attempting organization-wide adoption. The most successful departments find champions who naturally gravitate to the technology and then leverage their enthusiasm to spread adoption organically. The conversation then turns to exciting future developments: connected systems that integrate asset data with financial planning, Internet of Things sensors providing real-time monitoring, and artificial intelligence applications that can identify assets from photographs and optimize work scheduling.Whether you're considering your first asset management implementation or looking to improve an existing system, this episode offers practical wisdom from decades of experience across hundreds of municipalities.
