Lisa Wymond, Eyes Right Optical and Modstyle national brands manager, was recently awarded the Australian Next Generation Achiever Award at the Family Business Association National Conference in Alice Springs.
With a rigorous selection process and a high calibre of contenders, the Wymond family and the Eyes Right Optical and Modstyle teams were thrilled that Lisa won the award.
Lisa said she felt extremely proud when she heard the news: “I was humbled by the honour of being chosen as the winner, especially as there has been a very high calibre of winners in the past from large, multi-generational family businesses.
“All applicants are kept confidential, they didn’t reveal who I was up against, but I was told that I should be particularly proud as I had beaten some major competition from big businesses. It was a very proud moment for the Wymond family and the Eyes Right Optical family.”
The FBA Next Generation Achiever Award highlights the role played by emerging family business leaders. It recognises annually an outstanding person who has displayed excellence in their family business and is successfully navigating the path to leadership.
