What we stand for
With 48 countries and nearly 2,300 languages, Asia is defined by diversity. Variability in geography and the remoteness of some places has resulted in the evolution of a wide spectrum of customs, religious beliefs and cultures. As of 2016, Asia’s population was 4.5 billion, giving it a remarkable global presence. The Asian Leadership Network (ALN) fosters a diverse and inclusive environment where every voice is heard and valued. We also promote a sense of belonging and community.
We do that by enabling all employees to reach their potential through:
- Cultural diversity
- Professional development
- Business and patient impact
Working at AbbVie
Perspective matters. Our patient population is diverse, and their needs are complex. We solve these challenges together, because complex problems require innovative solutions built on the diverse perspectives of an entire team.
We are committed to having our members achieve their full potential. Our efforts include:
- Cultural inclusion and peer mentoring programs to create opportunities for our members to excel in leadership skills, expand their network and inspire cross-functional collaborations
- “Lunch and Learn” programs to enable our members to better understand our products and pipeline
