Testimonials

"It has been such a pleasure to work with Tineke! When I organized a podcast on seafarer well-being, I knew she would contribute mightily to the discussion. Indeed, that was true. Tineke kindly shared her knowledge in a friendly and approachable way, and it was clear that she has a deep knowledge of both the shipping industry and interpersonal dynamics."

- Lisa Drake, Americas Marine Manager, Miami, USA

"Fascinating workshop.  Really got me thinking.  Opened my mind to the fact that there are potential reasons that my communication with some of my students isn't always effective and that it could be due to generational differences.  I'm looking forward to taking this knowledge and understanding into my lectures to hopefully benefit myself and the students"

- Gillian McGrath, Maritime Lecturer, Faculty of Nautical Studies & STEM, City Of Glasgow College
