work and commitment of our seafarers. This year’s campaign theme was “At Sea For All” emphasizing that seafarers serve at sea and are indispensable to

the world. We collected photos of our seafarers using the hashtag #TeekaySpirit. We showed the world who our seafarers are.

SEAFARER CONFERENCES

Teekay has several thousand seafarers all around the world; whether at home in 20+ countries or on our vessels found, well, everywhere. It is the nature of the business that people and assets are scattered across the globe doing work for customers.

So, it is rare that colleagues can come together in one place at one time. That is the purpose of our seafarer conferences. The focus is to connect ship and shore, creating alignment – to support each other and learn from each other TOGETHER.

My life is almost always on the ships. The company, the crew.They are my family because when I take care of them, they take care of me. When I come onboard and I meet the crew, I learn what they want, what they

like, the food they like. I write it down so I remember in the next ordering to order the food they like.I don’t order the food that will become wasted because they don’t like it. I just order the food that’s healthy for them and what

they like. My job is to care and protect the health of the people. To give them good and healthy food.

A TEEKAY CAREER

ORCHESTRATIONVancouver

My perspective of the F&A team at Teekay is that it’s a global networked organization who rely on each other to create the final product. So it’s a real orchestrated effort, you can

think of it like a symphony. Not any one person or level can know everything, Everyone’s got their part, and each part is as important as the other.

When I first came to TK I was a contractor – great way to getto know Teekay and for Teekay to get to know me. A year after that a position came up for a permanent role so I applied for

A TEEKAY CAREERTeekay Accounting

that and I was the successful candidate. Teekay took a chance on me so I am loyal to Teekay for that and that is one of the reasons I have been here for 5 years. Speaking to anyone in the

accounting realm in Vancouver - they know exactly what Teekay is – and maybe my stature goes up a little bit once I say I work at Teekay.

CHASING SUNRISEWITH #TEEKAYSPIRIT

It was cold, it was damp, and the conditions were harsher than expected. But looking back, those aren’t the metrics that matter.

Not at all. What matters is that each one of you dug deep, pushed yourself, took turns carrying coffee, and helped each other up a mountain, step by step.

Each one of you persevered through the elements, and together, as a team, you reached the top.
