WINNIPEG, CANADA: Zorianna Hyworon, Founder and CEO of InfoTech Inc., creator of the international health risk assessment (HRA) Wellness Checkpoint®, will be a featured speaker at the 6th Annual Institute for Health and Productivity Management (IHPM) EU/UK Health & Productivity Forum, November 30-December 1, in London, England.
“IHPM is especially pleased to have Zorianna on the program for our 6th Annual European Health & Productivity Forum in London. It’s altogether fitting that she be there for several reasons – the first of these being that InfoTech operates in over 85 countries, making her the most European and the most global of all health and productivity providers. Additionally, last March in Orlando at IHPM’s 10th Annual International Conference it was my personal pleasure to present her with the inaugural International Leadership Award in Health & Productivity Management for her outstanding contribution to the growth of this movement around the world. And, finally, we welcome her back to the stage at Unilever House, where she first spoke at our UK Forum in 2002”, said Sean Sullivan, President & CEO, IHPM.
Zorianna will be giving a presentation entitled “Linking Health Risks to Workplace Performance” on the first day of the conference. “I am pleased to be able to share some of the insight gained from the global experience of our clients in using key measures of health and productivity to support business decisions”, said Zorianna Hyworon. “The case studies I will present illustrate how ‘connecting the dots’ between health and work delivers business value, particularly during times of change.”
