How does fitness or wellness affect your overall organization?
"We’re in a highly conceptual, creative business. It’s been our experience that the fitter the employee, the better the mental capacity. That translates into better solutions for our clients. Plus, employees are happier when they’re fit which makes for a better workplace environment."

What advice do you have for other executives interested in starting either a personal fitness plan or corporate wellness initiative?
"Look into a plan that will make the most sense for the employees from a cost and convenience standpoint. Allow them time during the workday to exercise. Help ease the financial part of the equation by picking up some of the costs. Plan activities that allow employees to use their fitness – outings like kayaking or hiking or cycling."
