A lifetime in actuation Interview with Chris Warnett

摘要

He may have passed retirerment age Chris Warnett is by no means ready to slow down. He currently holds two jobs, has authored a best'Selling book on valve actuators and is regularly asked to speak at events. With the benefit of hindsight, Chris' lifelong career with actuator manufacturer Rotork could be termed as inevitable. After all, if you graduate with a first in engineering from Bath University, then applying to local company Rotork for a starting position is a natural step to take. Even so, Chris recalls that it took a small nudge from a close friend before he considered approaching Rotork. Passing through the company doors for the first time he was interviewed by none other than Jeremy Fry, the gifted entrepreneur who did so much to transform Rotork into a major player in the actuator business.
