CMA Shipping’s Post

https://lnkd.in/gGh6VMDQ When Kenneth Oaks co-founded Total Quality Logistics in 1997, he aimed to shape his freight brokerage firm around the values of ethics and integrity. That's why he developed his Five Winning Principles: pledge integrity; exceed expectations; recognize the value of teamwork; be forthright about conflict; and maintain balance in life and business. "We treat others the way we'd want to be treated," Oaks said. "It's one of the most basic, but important principles in life." 🚛🚂✈️🚢 I move freight at Total Quality Logistics (TQL).

As an Irish Narional I was recently reflecting on the legacy of the Jeanie Johnston, a 19th-century ship that symbolized hope and resilience during Ireland's Great Famine, she reminds me of the values we strive to uphold in modern-day shipping. In an era where technology has transformed the industry, the core principles of safety, care, and commitment to every individual remain as relevant as ever. Just as Captain James Attridge and his crew ensured that not a single life was lost aboard the Jeanie Johnston, today's shipping professionals prioritize the safety and well-being of crew members and cargo alike. As we navigate the complexities of global trade, the lessons from history remind us that our industry is not just about moving goods from one place to another—it's about connecting people, supporting communities, and enabling progress. In the same way that the Jeanie Johnston brought hope to thousands, we have the responsibility to ensure that our operations contribute positively to the world. The resilience and adaptability of those who came before us serve as a powerful example as we face the challenges of today and tomorrow. Let's continue to innovate, collaborate, and lead with integrity, ensuring that the spirit of care and commitment remains at the heart of modern shipping. #Shipping #MaritimeIndustry #Leadership #Resilience #GlobalTrade #SafetyFirst

I can only humbly accept this award on behalf of all my current and previous colleagues at Lloyd's Register, our customers, our stakeholders, IMO and peers at IACS who have all worked for many years to improve the safety performance of our industry. The truth is we still have a long way to go. The pace of change in our industry, as we strive to reduce our emissions is introducing new risks. War and conflicts are creating additional risks for our seafarers, their ships and their cargoes. So as our world seems to be getting less safe and more volatile, we need to redouble our efforts as leaders. CEOs have THE key role to play in ensuring Safety is at the top of our agendas. Companies with better safety cultures will attract and retain better customers, better people and over perform financially.
