Today on the Inspired Peak Performance FLowCast I am grateful to have had a deep conversation with Gareth Evans. Dad, Husband, Friend, CEO and Adventure Seeker.

Gareth is committed to constantly evolving VΞCKTA as the world’s leading Energy Transition platform to empower businesses, organizations and communities to successfully navigate the energy transition and create a distributed energy future. He is passionate about doing this in harmony with VΞCKTA's vision, mission and values, while having fun along the way!

VECKTA’s Global MissionProtecting your culture is vital (1 bad apple…)The impact of stressRecovery & routinesLeading in Iraq & the aftermathFamily & adventure, Mountain Biking & endurance eventsThe parallel in business, flow and endurance sportsHow bacon & whiskey could become the ultimate reward for your team..
Gareth has lived, travelled and worked on 6 continents. He quickly fosters and firmly believes in developing a strong culture based around a common vison, goals, trusting relationships, innovation, collaboration and efficient execution. He is committed to continuously learning, leading by example, mentoring others, delivering value through everything he does and challenging the status quo. He is passionate about the idea that it’s possible to live life to its fullest both inside and outside of the office.
A pivotal point in his career was his time in Iraq where he witnessed what life was truly like without the essential basics; fresh water, reliable/available energy and a secure and clean environment. It was at this point he knew he needed to work towards being a part of a solution that didn’t just benefit the paying client but also the community and environment, so we can all thrive.
Gareth applied his natural leaderships skills honed through charity work in South America, sports teams, being in the military and leading business' successfully through 3 economic downturns and rounded his skill set with roles leading commercial, strategy and business development teams. His last role was leading Worley's Global Distributed Energy Systems strategy and Power Networks & Systems team, focusing on positioning the company and clients to successfully navigate the energy transition, from which the idea of VECKTA was born.
He is a dad, husband and friend who seeks out adventure at every turn, ranging from flying planes with the British Air Force, training for 2 months with the Shaolin Monks in remote China to travelling the world in search of endurance event pain and the next bike adventure. Some of his most memorable adventures were training for and completing Ironman Cairns, off-road motorbiking in Spain with his dad and solo from northern California to the bottom of Baja and back. Most recently he competed in California Enduro Mountain Bike Series with friends and completed Brek Epic (a 6 day race) with his wife.
