FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin In an exclusive interview to SAFETY4SEA, Capt. John Wright, FNI, HCMM, Maritime Professional Council of the UK (MPC), discusses the importance of leading with kindness, highlighting that the connection between Kind Leadership and a strong business performance has yet to be widely recognized in the maritime industry. He emphasizes that Kind Leadership is crucial for fostering a “One-Team” environment, driving operational excellence, and ultimately achieving a Generative Safety Culture. Among other advantages, Kind Leadership helps create a motivating and inclusive environment where team members feel valued and heard. In this regard, Capt. John suggests that a company should be led by a CEO who embodies Kind Leadership and is fully supported by the Board of Directors in their mission to build a true “One-Team” culture. This, he argues, is the only effective way to bridge, what is often a costly ‘chasm’ between ship and shore management teams.
