Training and Capacity Building
This practice designs and delivers bespoke training programmes in conflict resolution, communication, and leadership, tailored to the realities of working at sea and within maritime organisations. The training is developed for multinational crews, ship–shore teams, and maritime NGOs, combining practical tools with direct relevance to operational contexts. The objective is to enable participants to recognise tensions early, manage disagreements constructively, and use dialogue as a resource for effective cooperation.
Effective communication is fundamental to safety, wellbeing, and performance in maritime settings. Bespoke training programmes support both seagoing and shore-based personnel in developing shared understanding across cultural and hierarchical boundaries, strengthening listening and feedback skills, and improving collaboration under operational pressure. Participants gain practical methods for responding to emerging conflicts before they escalate, including structured dialogue, de-escalation techniques, and clear referral pathways when additional support is required.
Each training programme is adapted to the specific context—whether delivered on board, as part of management or leadership workshops, or in preparation for NGO missions. Development takes place in consultation with the organisation to ensure alignment with operational requirements, organisational culture, and relevant regulatory frameworks. The aim is not only to address individual situations, but to strengthen long-term capacity for dialogue, contributing to safer, more cooperative, and more resilient teams across the maritime sector.
