Nominations for The John Percival Leadership Award 2019 now open

Crew training centre JPMA has opened nominations for The John Percival Leadership Award 2019, which aims to promote high standards in all levels of crew.

Created in memory of captain John Percival, the award aims to reward crew members who nurture junior crew and demonstrate leadership abilities on board.

JPMA has now officially opened nominations for this year’s award, posing these three questions to crew:

• Does your bosun guide you in your career decisions, sharing knowledge and recommending courses?
• Does your engineer explain what goes on within the engine room, letting you shadow engine room checks?
• Does your chef share tips and techniques, encouraging crew to expand their culinary knowledge and abilities?

Crew can nominate deserving colleagues (past or present) by emailing [email protected] by Friday 27^th September.

The award will be presented during Monaco Yacht Show 2019.
