| OUR THEME - PEOPLE, OPERATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY
Our special theme for this year is people, operations and technology.
Any company can buy technology products, but for products to support staff in execution of their goals, we need a good technology, operations and technology relationship.
In particular, technology tools must provide people with the best situation awareness they need to do their work.
This applies to people in all operational roles in shipping - such as maintenance and asset management, safety management, training and competency management, procurement, commercial, vessel performance
And also to people managing digital infrastructure and cybersecurity itself - is it easy to manage, are we identifying problems in advance, or only being reactive (responding to problems brought to us by others)?
Getting decarbonisation right is all about the people-operations-technology relationship. And it is different for crew in the engine room or deck, for superintendents, for vessel performance managers, for commercial people and senior managers making investment decisions.
The better we do people, operations and technology, the better the company performs overall. We need to get as good as we can at it, and do that quickly.
We'll explore how to do that at People Technology Maritime Athens in October 2025. |
