Participation-based Model of Ship Crew Management
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper analyses the participation-based model on board ship as possibly optimal leadership model existing in the shipping industry with accent on decision-making process. In the paper the authors have tried to define master’s behaviour model and management style identifying drawbacks and disadvantages of vertical, pyramidal organization with master on top. The paper describes the efficiency of decision making within team organization and optimization of a ship organisation by introducing teamwork on board ship. Three examples of ship accidents are studied and evaluated through “Leader-participation” model. The model of participation-based management as a model of the teamwork has been applied in studying the cause-and-effect of accidents with the critical review of the communication and managing the human resources on a ship. The results have showed that the cause of all three accidents is the autocratic behaviour of the leaders and the lack of communication within teams.
