ship management sector.

ship management sector needs to manage to be regarded as successful.

This piece of work sheds more knowledge on the strategies undertaken by the ship managers and the

questionnaire. The survey was taken by decision makers (top management staff) of third-party ship 

management companies who answered both open and closed ended question so as to allow for 

specificity and flexibility where needed.

relationship reasons, the ship management sector has not reached its full potential in terms of the share 

of the world fleet it currently managed. It was also discovered that the number of fleet will grow and
