Rob Wheals is the chief executive of gas pipeline operator APA Group. He answers our CEO Q&A.
Very early in my career, I was encouraged to see the world and work abroad. It stayed with me and led me to work in a number of different countries.
I was in a rush to do things as a young kid. They were always telling me, and my kids are probably tired of me telling them: “If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right.” I really have taken that with me with whatever I do now. In the late ’90s and early 2000s when I was working in the telecommunications sector, I was exposed to industry-wide changes that turned that sector on its head. Those experiences have served as a useful analogue for what is happening in the energy sector right now.
It’s a pivotal time in the energy industry, but a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make a difference.I try to go for a run most mornings. It is important for both my physical and mental well-being.
