At L’Oréal, we anchor our actions in our strong values and demanding ethical principles: respect for employees, a very engaged leadership, innovation and sustainability in its environmental and social dimensions. Cultivated and nurtured over the years, these values continue to be our reference – especially in these current challenging circumstances.

All of us wish to be part of a company culture that embraces trust and professional empowerment. Enjoying and appreciating diversity and inclusion is the essence of our spirit, alongside inclusion. We act to build a business with inclusivity at its heart by ensuring we are as diverse as the people we serve. It is important to be open to learning and to developing together – respecting and valuing our differences. Our company culture cultivates creativity, flexibility and the spirit of entrepreneurship.

The pace of change our teams are facing reflects broader global trends. We are keeping in step while the expectations towards us as leaders are rising – and we are challenged to inspire, while creating conditions for people to grow and cooperate more than ever. Perceiving change as an opportunity, we are continuously adapting our behaviour and our processes in order to be and to remain successful.

We remain conscious and mindful of our social and environmental footprint, and lead in corporate citizenship in our market with our sustainability program „L‘Oréal for the Future“.

Our consumers and customers are our reference point, the source of inspiration and driving force behind everything we do. We are a pioneer in the field of Beauty Tech: for us, beauty and technology are inseparable.

I am honoured to represent the teams of L’Oréal Austria and L’Oréal Germany.
