SET YOUR SIGHTS ON COMMAND!
As Master you represent the company onboard and are at all times ultimately responsible for the vessel’s safety and operations. Besides excellent navigational and operational abilities and good seafaring practice, your primary leadership role aboard your vessel requires you to demonstrate the following qualities:
- you must be able to build up and lead a good team
- you are the link between vessel, company and charterer and therefore you must be capable of communicating very well with crew and officers and between ship and shore in an authoritative way
- you are responsible for our quality system being implemented and followed by all on board.
At the same time you are required to remain firm but fair with a good understanding of human nature and its limitations.
Futhermore, as Master you are expected to be supportive of your crew and to take an active interest in their personal and professional development.
