Message from Luxin Wang, General Manager, Alcon Australia
“I joined Alcon over six years ago and what I discovered was a wonderfully innovative
and deeply performance driven organisation. Innovation is the bloodline of our
company and as the leader in the industry, it is our responsibility to continue to raise
the bar and exceed the expectations of our stakeholders – our patients, healthcare
partners, shareholders, Alcon associates and society.
Now more than ever, we at Alcon Australia are focused on our core values and I
believe this focus will help us create an even better and more rewarding place to work.
Our associates, first and foremost, are passionate about helping patients and with our
values guiding how each of us operate on a daily basis, we will continue to deliver on
our mission of enhancing sight and enhancing lives.
By inviting individuals to join our organisation who have the common goal of helping
patients, this collective caring fosters trust, inspires integrity leading to respect and
ultimately fulfilling our aspiration of being the most trusted leader in eye care.
I am excited to be working with such a dedicated, patient focused and innovative
team in Alcon Australia. I invite you to join our journey to make our organisation
even greater, allowing us to provide more care and improve the vision of more
people every year.”
