The maritime industry is at a critical juncture as it navigates the challenges of engaging five generations in the workforce, particularly as Gen Z and Millennials often overlook maritime careers in favor of other sectors. With heightened competition and the risk of losing key personnel to competitors, maritime employers must adapt to attract and retain top talent for long-term success.
In this dynamic session, presenters Sabrina Brigance and Troy Vermillion deliver actionable strategies to transform traditional recruitment and retention practices. The discussion will cover modern recruitment techniques, effective storytelling, and the development of clear career paths. In addition, the session will explore the importance of competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, a holistic safety culture, and leadership development tailored to today’s multi-generational workforce.
