Executive Health Check-up

The Corporate World in the Indian context is a place where competition is growing by the day. There isn’t even a single industry that doesn’t find competition in time. The direct result of this competition falls on the employees of the industry to perform better and more all the time. Of those, the most affected remain at the top, the Executives. Not only do they have to shoulder the burden of guiding the organization towards growth and prosperity all the time.

They also have to take tough decisions with onerous implications. Profits or losses, they are held responsible for both. Long hours, constant pressures, differing job profiles, and frequent travels by themselves bring about stress and a general lack of health. Add to these subsidiary factors including lack of sleep, improper food habits, consumption of alcohol and tobacco, medication and the likes, and what you can get in a human with severe physical complications that going forward may affect not only the well-being of such a person and the immediate family but also the organization which he (or she) is in command.

The existing scenario cannot be changed anytime soon due to ever-increasing competition which will drive people to perform.
