You're leading a team of Marine Engineers. How can you create a sense of belonging among your team members?

To create a sense of belonging among my team of marine engineers, I would: 1. Encourage open communication and active listening. 2. Foster a culture of respect, empathy, and inclusivity. 3. Recognize and celebrate individual and team achievements. 4. Promote collaboration and teamwork on projects. 5. Provide opportunities for professional growth and development. 6. Emphasize our shared purpose and goals. 7. Organize team-building activities and social events. 8. Lead by example, demonstrating a commitment to our team's values. 9. Encourage feedback, suggestions and for Celebrate milestones together. By implementing these strategies, I believe we can build a strong sense of belonging and camaraderie within our team of marine engineers!

Every team needs a purpose - why do we exist? Every team needs a vision - where do we want to reach and by when? Every team needs a set of goals - what do we want to achieve? Every team needs a culture - what are our shared set of values and beliefs? Every team needs a strategy - how are we going to live our purpose and achieve our goals, thus reaching our desired destination? Every team needs structure and systems - do we have the framework and discipline we need to march in lockstep? Every team needs resources - do we have all the tools to get the job done? Every team needs a guide - do we have someone who cheers us on, who nudges us, who reminds us of who we are and where we are going? Thus, we belong.

If you lead a team, you need to be able to set and uphold the standards. Why do most high school players want to play for Alabama? Because they win. Everyone wants to be on a winning team. As a leader you need to define what winning is and then challenge your team to win, giving them all the resources they need to do so. Winning, in and of itself, is the motivation. When you get your team winning, get out of the way and let them win some more.

Should create a safe space for team members to share their ideas and concerns with regular team meetings and one on one conversation can help to build trust and better understanding. We have to acknowledge the hard work and achievements of each team member through praise and reward. Give opportunities for team members to brush up with new skills and advance their career.

La comunicación en un equipo es una de las herramientas mas importantes que tiene el liderazgo para conseguir crear un ambiente propicio para el desarrollo y aprendizaje de cada uno de sus miembros.

Opinions any persons engine room staff, but final decision behind Chief Engineer and responsibilities for final decision and results, even negative....

Adopter une communication approprié en encourageant toute proposition et ne pas écarter les plus faibles du cercle des lumières. La communication doit être très fluide en transversale comme en vertical, sans oublier une gestion ferme des situations d'urgence

Encourage an open and transparent line of communication, where team members feel comfortable sharing ideas, challenges and feedback. Regular team meetings, one-on-one, check-in, and a culture of listening can help create this.

Good communication should be encouraged. All input should be considered, even the ideas that may not make much sense at first. ALWAYS acknowledge the person whose input was used in the solution.

Understanding team dynamics is the key to any operation let alone for Marine Engineers. Different people have different strengths and weaknesses. Also different people have different kind of chemistry with different people onboard a ship. Understanding these dynamics is the key for any Chief engineer to maintain harmony and efficiency in the engine room.

Intera??o de todos envolvidos no trabalho é muito importante, todos da equipe tem um papel fundamental, todos s?o pe?a chave para um trabalho bem sucedido.

Feeling part of a team is a great motivator to make people loyal and want to deliver. I do what I can to make coming into the office fun and engaging and make people feel like that all contributing to a team result.

Así es, totalmente cierto, se debe celebrar los logros individuales y grupales logrados. Esto ayuda a que cada dia seamos mejores profesionales dentro del ambiente de trabajo. Pero también la Empresa debe aportar y celebrar esos logros.

Pour dynamiser une équipe , il faut conna?tre et ma?triser les relation en sous réseau et comprendre les objectifs et ambitions de tout un chacun, par la suite attribuer les r?les et encouragements selon le besoin

It is always good to foster expansion of skills for individual team members. The new skills they learn will be brought back to the team. Offer them the oppportunity to share what they have learned with other team members. Try to find an outlet for their new skills in upcoming projects.

Mentorship and knowledge transfer are critical components of professional growth. In marine engineering teams, experienced engineers can mentor younger professionals, sharing valuable insights kn topics such as problem solving in harsh marine environment or optimising vessel performance. This not only promotes individual growth but also promote a culture of collaboration learning and shared success within the team. By prioritising professional growth, marine engineering teams can maintain high-level of innovation, adaptability, and job satisfaction, ensuring long-term success in an ever-changing and challenging industry.

Technical excellence is important for delivering work and making people strive to do well. Continual learning and expansion of abilities and roles contribute to a culture of success.

Maintaining work life balance in marine engineering teams is crucial due to the demanding nature of the job of an involving long hours tight deadlines and sometimes offshore or remote work. Leaders can promote balance by encouraging reasonable workload, flexible schedule and time of when needed, providing mental health support and fostering supportive work environment also helps a balanced approach ensures that engineers remain motivated, avoid burnout and maintain productivity, leading to better team performance and long-term career satisfaction in the Maritime field.

Work-Life balance is best when a working schedule is set and there are no big changes. Allowing trades among the team is always possible and allows for lifes' unscheduled events to be dealt with.

La diversidad enriquece el equipo y crea la oportunidad de que sus miembros se desarrollen tanto profesionalmente, como personalmente. Las experiencias de cada individuo hacen que personas similares tengan puntos de vista y ideologías muy diferentes, pero no por eso menos interesantes. Entender eso y conseguir potenciar esas experiencias para sacar el mayor provecho a las personas del equipo puede hacer la diferencia entre el éxito o el fracaso del equipo.

Having worked overseas with mariners from different countries, just getting to know each other and talking about family and hobbies and things they like to do in their home time, and building on different skills and knowledge and letting that team member work more in their area in which they may be stronger in helps everyone seems more comfortable and it makes for team synergy.
