Crew-GlueOnboard teambuilding

Who? (we do it for)

We’re focused on working with crew onboard yachts of up to 60m because it’s where we can have the greatest impact. We understand that smaller teams often come with a different team culture than those onboard larger yachts. That’s not to say they’re better, just different!

We know that in smaller teams, crew often spend more time socialising as well as working together because of the nature of how smaller yachts are designed. For example, crew quarters and the mess are smaller spaces, so crew naturally spend more time alongside each other. As a result, team dynamics are often different to what you’ll find onboard much larger yachts.

Why? (we do it)

Trust is fundamental for successful and resilient crews. Understanding the dynamics of how individuals feel, function and communicate is key to achieving this. Our teambuilding programmes are specifically designed for the superyacht industry by qualified professionals in the field of team development. We help both individuals and crews get into ‘flow’. Flow is the path of least resistance, an environment that promotes increased productivity and improved results and where people have more fun and feel more connected.

What? (we do)

As a whole crew or by department we work together to understand the stages that teams go through, how to manage each stage and what it takes to reach ‘high performance’ as a crew. We use LH Dynamics as a tool to explore your strengths as an individual and the strengths of your crew mates and we work out, together, how we can all be in flow and maintain trust and harmony when we are under pressure.

How? (we do it)

Our programmes are delivered onboard in one, two or three day events and we also offer virtual sessions in 2-3 hour chunks when we can’t be with you in person. Both the live and the virtual sessions are highly interactive facilitated events with the focus on you, not chalk and talk lectures! Based on our experience of working with crew onboard yachts we have created the following packages:
