LEADERSHIP

👮‍♂️

Is leadership what it is or what you think it is?

Leadership has been addressed similarly in different historical biblical stories around the world. Some showcase, strength, courage, smartness, and discipline of a person taking a stand against all odds. Demonstrating a strong moral character which builds; Respect, Integrity, Courage, and a sound moral compass.

Such influential drag people to recognise what they lack in themselves. Leaving them wanting the desirable.


What is leadership base on?

"Authority" and "Power". It's only natural for the strong to suppress and rule over the weak.


Tell me what do you think

"Are Leaders are born or made"?

We have heard of leaders that were born to lead like kings and Queens. A generation upon generation nobles living the glory of their ancestors.

We have also heard about leaders that had to go through the struggle of life and due to their drive others got the necessary inspiration to improve.

Type of leadership

Due to human individuality, different leadership styles were discovered.

Charismatic leadership 

That is, the force of personality to order, order.
For example, the moment when someone you all respect starts talking or makes a gesture that requires your full attention.

Laissez-faire leadership

That is a situation where the leader allows the other members to be creative and not impose chains on their creative imagination. It can be seen as the," I don't mind approach, we will do what we want".

Autocratic leadership

That is, a ONE MANPOWER situation. All the decisions both strategic and technical are left for one person to deal with it. It's very complex if it concerns people that are in the zone.

Democratic leadership

That is, all members of the organisation share the power and thus have the right to take or leave it.

Servant leadership

That's, serve at all costs and levels. The purity of a rich discipline is to serve so one can value those serving.

Transformational leadership

That is, broaden and elevate the interest of the team while generating results.

Transactional leadership

That is, rewards and punishment exchange oriented.

Situational leadership

That is, leaders, adjust their leadership style to fit the development level of the followers or team.

Alpha Hawk and RT MARGO work hand in hand to remove Milaha Explorer from jetty at CNIC LIMBE

 1400hour LT Cameroon - Limbe, Milaha Explorer vessel requested assistance to get out of the jetty of CNIC LIMBE. Two vessels namely Alpha Hawk and RT MARGO assisted this event. The process was simple in theory but complex in practice. Nevertheless, Milaha Explorer was removed successfully and towed its way out of the key. This exploit was performed by Cameroonian Seafarer who gave it their all in achieving this task with efficiency and effectiveness.  Towing the ship was through the difficult part.         M.V Alpha Hark and RT Margo had to pull the vessel at its port and starboard respectively. If not the vessel might have rolled horizontally into the Sea. RT MARGO had to lash their rope for a few meters to reduce the tension in the rope; this safety measure is not taken by most towing vessels at sea and thus, we find cases like the vessels back lass destroying a part of the vessel or in the worst scenario ending someone's life.
