Meet Tyler Williams, Superintendent at A&B!

As part of our Quarterly People Focus, we’re proud to recognize one of our Superintendents, Tyler Williams, who recently graduated as a Quanta Services Elite Foreman. He brings leadership, humility, and a strong commitment to his crew every day. Here’s what he had to say about his role, what drives him, and what the recognition means to him.

What is your role at A&B and what does a typical day look like for you?

I’m a Pipeline Superintendent at A&B Energy Services. A typical day for me involves organizing my crew and team members in the field, ensuring that they are set up to execute successful projects for our clients, and providing solutions to potential challenges we may face.

What drives you to do your best work?

I’m driven by seeing the people around me and how much they care about what they do, it elevates me to be better. I get up in the morning because of the good people I work with.

Congratulations on being recognized as a Quanta Services Elite Foreman and your recent graduation from the program! What does this recognition mean to you?

Initially, I didn’t really know what the program was about, though it was cool and appreciated to be recognized. After traveling to Houston to meet the other foremen selected for this recognition and learn more, I better understood what the program represents and stands for. It was very cool to have 43 people, out of Quanta’s 50,000+ employees, from all over the world in the same room. I found it very humbling; the level of people in the program was an incredible experience. I do have to say though that it’s my guys that make me look good; they are the ones putting in the hard work.

Advice for others looking to grow?

In my experience, everything starts from the bottom; it’s not top-down, it’s bottom-up, you must listen to your people, treat them with kindness and respect; guide and teach people.

As part of the Quanta Elite program, I learned the importance of picking your replacement and finding that perfect person that will take your job. I want everyone who works with me to have my job tomorrow and be successful, I will give them whatever tools I can to accomplish that. We need to get the younger generation excited and want the job, and to develop them into good leaders.

What do you do to unwind?

I like to travel, especially to warm destinations. I like sitting on the beach!
