We discuss our similar experiences as women in the maritime industry and share the good and the bad. What is the current role model when entering the industry? Has it changed, or do we need to take action to make it less traditional and moulded after its predecessors?

217 Lena Gothberg, Host and Producer of the Shipping Podcast

Why is it important with a diverse and inclusive maritime industry?

I was invited to the European Parliament to participate in a panel discussion on Empowering Women in the Maritime industry and the role of the EU, organised by Miss Vera Tax (MEP).
Since you were not there, and I took the time to prepare my interjections, I thought it would be a good idea to share my thoughts on this topic.
At a later stage, I might be able to share with you what was said since I have asked for the audio files...

In my honest opinion

Every conversation matters. That is something that I have realised over the years of producing the Shipping Podcast. We need to talk about the change we want, and we need to speak about what we want to achieve. And we need to listen to people with other viewpoints to understand the pain points and how we can make them less painful. 

Where do I find the Stars of the Sea to be guests on the Shipping Podcast? I often get that question, and here I spill the beans.

Do you have...
