Leadership profiling of ocean going ship masters
Ship Masters of ocean going ships are team leaders and decision makers in charge of managing usually diverse teams that have to confrontunexpected situations that might risk the life safety of crewmembers and the loss of the asset. Despite their critical role, research on the Masters’leading role is rather limited. Lack of relevant research becomes even more noticeable if one takes into account that the ocean going ship as aproductive unit and working environment is paralleled with the “total institution”, i.e. an isolated, enclosed social system that controls aspects of its members’ lives.
This paper focuses on the ocean going ship Masters and aims at identifying their leadership profiles and understanding their attitudes and reactions in given circumstances. It analyses and discusses the results of a field study of ship officers of different nationalities employed as Masters
