Trusted for ImpactÂ
A 16-week online leadership development program to build psychologically safe, high-performing maritime teams
Develop centered leaders who strengthen trust, reduce risk, and enable safer operations
Â
In today’s maritime environment, technical skills are no longer enough.
Leadership now demands calm under pressure, communication across cultures, and the ability to build psychological safety — from the bridge to the boardroom.
Trusted for Impact™ helps your leaders develop these capabilities from the inside out — using neuroscience-based tools, communication psychology, and a step-by-step process built for high-stakes operations.
How Trusted for Impact works: The Ocean Minds Leadership Loop
Each phase of Trusted for Impact™ is powered by the Ocean Minds Leadership Loop™ — a structured process that develops leadership from the inside out - each phase building on the previous phase.
Â
Phase 1: STATE
HOW I SHOW UP
The objective of the first phase is to build emotional regulation, personal presence, and calm under pressure.Â
The outcome is leaders who stay composed in stressful situations, manage emotional triggers, and model centered leadership that reduces reactivity in others
Â
Phase 2: FRAME
HOW I INTERPRETÂ
The objective of phase 2 is to increase mindset flexibility, align leadership values and enhance cognitive reframing.
The outcome is leaders who reduce their fixed or biased thinking, gain internal clarity, and make more consistent decisions that support safety and operational goals.
Â
Phase 3: COMMUNICATION
WHAT I PROJECT
The objective is to improve communication accuracy, listening capabilities, and trust-building.
The outcome is leaders who build relational trust, listen with curiosity, and lead conversations that demonstrate intelligent humility and foster psychological safety.
Â
Â
Phase 4: IMPACT
WHAT I CREATEÂ
The objective is to enable cultural leadership through safety, learning, and trust.
The outcome is leaders who create team environments where people speak up early, learn from mistakes, and continuously improve performance — resulting in stronger retention, safety, and trust across ship and shore.
