IDEAL FOR YOU:
You just signed your first contract as a Cruise Manager or Cruise Director, and you want to arrive prepared rather than overwhelmed. This is for newly hired professionals — academy graduates and external hires alike — who want to succeed from day one, not simply survive it.
WHAT IT INCLUDES:
5 personal mentoring sessions (45 min each) with Maddy
Your first 48 hours on board — what to do before you unpack
Daily programme design for a full cruise week
Working with the Hotel Manager: the most important relationship on the ship
Mock mid-season performance debrief with live feedback
Email support between sessions
VALUE:
A first season done badly follows you. Your guest satisfaction rating is set in the first few weeks, and it is the number every future employer asks about.
This is five hours with the person who has trained 160+ River Cruise Managers through exactly this moment — before the mistakes, not after.
Recent academy graduates start at €300+/day, so the programme is covered in a little over three days on board.
