| Wylfa is a nuclear power station on the north coast of Anglesey which meets more than 40% of Wales' electricity needs and has 650 employees.
Greg has inspired his workforce to excellence despite the challenges of an uncertain future, encouraging each of them to achieve their full potential. His leadership style comes from his passion not his position. Greg inspires Wylfa’s employees to have confidence in themselves, explore every opportunity available to them and achieve their ambitions. His balanced leadership style means that he is close enough to relate to those who work with him, but far enough ahead to inspire them. Greg has been described as a visionary; he is not self-limiting and believes excellence is always possible. He has led Wylfa to become a centre of Nuclear Excellence and works closely with various organisations on their Human Performance Improvement initiative. He instils a sense of excellence in everyone at the site, encouraging them to think twice about everything they do and aim to make it better. By challenging people to perform outside their comfort zone, Greg has led a transformation at Wylfa, helping every member of staff to grow in both their personal and team performance. Beyond Wylfa, Greg has a genuine interest in developing the skills of young people on Anglesey. He established an engagement programme with local secondary schools to create world class skills in North West Wales, enthusing the next generation of nuclear professionals and supporting a sustainable future for the UK nuclear industry. |
