Bridge Resource Management (BRM) Volume 1: The human element

Featuring contributions from multiple maritime experts, this volume introduces the topic of BRM and the factors that underpin effective teamwork, where people perform at their best while being alert to their vulnerabilities as human beings.

This practical guide explores:

• Situational awareness and team dynamics
• Enhanced communications and cultural diversity
• Authority, assertiveness and leadership
• Managing workload and dealing with overload

Bridge Resource Management Volume 2: Voyage planning

Voyage planning is a cornerstone of safe navigation and good BRM. This volume explores all aspects of preparing and executing a plan – one that considers all known information, establishes margins of safety and defines clear operational limits that allow for timely interventions.

This guide illustrates that good voyage planning and effective BRM avoids single-person failures when the bridge team anticipate, mitigate, challenge, react and respond, promoting the working together of human and technical resources in harmony.
