YOUNG FILIPINO CHIEF MATE, AN ICON OF A GOOD LEADER
A young Filipino Chief Mate is making a name in the field of seafaring. Like other mariners who had imprinted their names in the hierarchy of greatness and unquestioned characters in the performance of their duty as mariners, his is a cut above the rest. The trailblazing officer is much of a leader personified. He rose to the top of success in style through perseverance and dedication while the others took the opposite.
Chief Mate Alejandro Bersaluna, the amiable, low profile and down-to-earth Filipino Ship Officer possess the quality of a good leader. He is serious-minded yet pleasant in character. He brings to the fore his being kind and selfless without the imprimatur of an ego. His leadership style is bereft of medieval domineering temperament.
He is a teacher to those who are lacking in knowledge in seamanship. He shares his vast learning experience in cargo handling operation, navigation, security, safety, mooring operation, deck tasks and others. C/M Bersaluna confined his position not to berate or shame his junior officers and ratings.
The officer was never involved in any heated discussion or argument because he is too patient in everything he does. Likewise, patience served as his tools in teaching deck cadets and ratings in everything about ship operation. Unlike most of the officers who are keeping knowledge to themselves, C/M Bersaluna is open in sharing his ideas.
Chief Mate Alejandro Bersaluna, who hails from Bohol Province, south of the Philippines, is best described as an icon of a good leader for being true to himself, for being broadminded and for having a unique character worth of emulation. To the officers and crew who are now with C/M Bersaluna, CHEERS for having him in your ship.
