256Camilla Wadstrup Westergaard, Vessel Assurance Surveyor

Are we following the times?

Leadership and situational awareness are not part of maritime education. If we want to achieve our goals to become sustainable, then we need the right people.

So many things have to change for us to become seriously competitive with other industries. We need to target very young children so that we can become part of their dreams.

Listen to Camilla Westergaard, one of the young people who dares to speak up. Our conversation involves a few answers to our challenges, and maybe we can spark you to develop a few more.

Please give us a shoutout on social media, and we are ready to continue this conversation online. Thank you for listening.

Spreading the word about the maritime industry in Germany

Hearing someone say you have inspired them to do something is the best feeling in the world! After listening to the Shipping Podcast, Britta Müller started the Brittas Hafen Podcast in 2021. Now, we get to “compare notes” about what it is like to be a podcaster in the maritime sphere.

Listen to Brittas and I’s conversation to gain insight into our challenges and most significant wins. We enjoyed our conversation and hope that you do, too.

Should you know a Master Mariner fluent in the German language, please forward the contact details to Britta bm@brittas-hafentour.de or me hello@shippingpodcast.com
