Synopsis:
Increasingly, business people are waking up to the fact that prolonged stress can be extremely damaging - but they just don't know what to do about it. If stress is not tackled, mental and physical health suffer and people become less productive, less effective and more destructive - as well as ill.
This book is the health and lifestyle coach for the intelligent business person. It takes a positive approach to managing your own health and across all areas: physical, psychological, spiritual and ethical. High-profile case studies - of business and political figures from past and present - highlight the issues.
Health is your greatest asset and you should manage it as you would any other valuable commodity. The FT Guide to Executive Health helps you to build on strengths, identify weaknesses and develop strategies to combat risk.
