I met him in 2008, while he was on task of setting up of Translational Research Facility for Schering Plough (now MSD) in Singapore. He was heading the Molecular Profiling Section where I was hired by him for scientist position in Proteomics&Metabolomics team. He came across to me as an energetic, enthusiastic & most motivating team leader which attracted me to join his team. In his role as a section head, he showed great skills of bringing people together from multiple disciplines, binding and motivating them to work as an enthusiastic, unified team to drive the projects forward. In his leadership I always enjoyed his style of weekly progress meetings where he made his team members discuss scientific data across different disciplines and ensured that it reached every single person in the team. This impacted everyone in-terms of appreciating various work-flows and even made a few scientists switch teams which is amazing. He valued his team members and taught them how to remain motivated and defend each other even when the company is undergoing tough situations. He believes in work life balance and is positive person. He remained as a highly approachable person for everyone in the office who can provide unbiased, sincere and valuable guidance. It has been a pleasure to have Alain as a colleague and I’d recommend him to anyone who is looking for a person with problem solving, leadership qualities, science based with excellent communication and people management skills."
