Keywords:
Asset Management Capacity, Innovation, Organizational Learning, Regional Asset ManagementAbstract
Local governments in Indonesia are facing challenges in effectively and efficiently managing their assets. The lack of asset management capacity in many local governments is a major issue, characterized by ineffective asset tracking, suboptimal asset strategy development, ineffective control, asset misuse, and the underutilization of government assets that fail to stimulate the economy and community welfare. This research aims to enhance sustainable regional asset management capacity through organizational learning innovation in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Qualitative research methods were employed, including interviews and document studies. Key findings indicate that innovation in organizational learning, with a focus on critical reflection on knowledge and experience, collective adaptability, and a combination of coaching/mentoring methods with self-learning programs, can effectively enhance sustainable regional asset management capacity. The implications of this research underscore the need for local governments to adopt innovative organizational learning approaches to address asset management challenges, improve the effectiveness of public asset management, and ultimately support quality public services, regional development, and community welfare.
