The National Shipbuilding Research Program. 1988 Ship Production Symposium. Paper Number 7A: Management Development for the Shipbuilding Industry

Abstract

The current condition of the U.S. shipbuilding industry makes it vitally important for shipyards to develop company-trained managers with both business and shipbuilding management skills. In order to meet this need, the Bath Iron Works Corporation established the Management Development Program in April of 1986. BIW specifically recognized the need to develop middle managers with broad company backgrounds. The program was created to provide the company with a group of high-potential shipyard managers with sound general management skills.
