Mark Guilbert, Founder & Managing Director of MG Business Health Solutions, was the keynote speaker at the first “China Corporate Health & Wellbeing Management Forum,” which took place on the 29th and 30th June 2019 at the Courtyard Marriot Hotel, Beijing. The Forum, organized by Beijing Energy Management & Consulting Ltd, was attended by leading entrepreneurs and company directors interested in how to create a safer, healthier, and more effective work environment.
During the event Mark introduced the Energizing the Business Athlete® (EBA) program, supporting tools, completed projects in China, and how by being driven by purpose, the program helps organizations attract, develop, nurture, and retain outstanding people. He emphasized that the approach EBA has taken is universally applicable and can be individualized so that every single organization can apply the simple, yet effective principles.
Mark is a truly inspiring coach and athlete! Most businesspeople would benefit to take a moment with him to realize what really matters most, and how to live a more balanced and centered life. In addition, how to be more productive and effective, both professionally and privately. We, the Greater China Leadership team, will never forget the great time we spent with him!

Mark also talked about leadership, and how real leaders lead, not mislead. He reminded the attendees that leadership is not a position or some title on a business card, it’s a decision. A decision to be taking care of other people’s physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. And to do that effectively, leaders must pay the price of success with themselves first. Truly human leadership focuses on the human being, not their performance output. When leaders focus on showing empathy and taking care of the people entrusted to them, those same people will do extraordinary things!
On a final note, Mark stated that business and good leadership can change the world if it embraces the responsibility for the lives entrusted to it!
