The future of work is here. Current and future leaders must embrace new models and approaches to attract, develop, engage and retain their workforce. Corporate health management (CHM) has become a key factor in successfully competing in the “war for talent”. Not only does CHM effectively support the health, wellbeing and motivation of workers and employees.
