How Health Scare Changes Life Outlook - Ken Rona
In Chapter 4 of 13 in his 2011 Capture Your Flag interview with host Erik Michielsen, data analytics expert Ken Rona answers "How Has a Recent Health Scare Changed How You Live Your Life?" The scare reminds Rona he is on the Earth for a finite amount of time and that he should enjoy it. For many years, he has deferred travel and holidays to focus on saving and work. The scare causes Rona to shift some value to current enjoyment, including buying a convertible and taking more family vacations. Rona is currently VP Audience Insights and Ad Sales Partnerships at Turner Broadcasting. Previously, Rona has worked in roles in data analytics at IXI Digital and AOL and management consulting at McKinsey & Co. He earned a BA and MA in Political Science from Stony Brook University and a PhD in Behavioral Economics from Duke University.

Fitting in Fitness
Instead of setting aside a chunk of time every day to work out, one alternative is to fit in fitness throughout the day by making healthy decisions - like taking the stairs instead of an elevator.As part of the Shape Up Duke health competition, a group of staff members is able to accomplish just that by using time before work and during scheduled breaks to get in small chunks of exercise. Victor Ornelas, a fitness specialist with LIVE FOR LIFE, Duke's employee wellness program, said that's a good idea and explains how others can follow in the footsteps of these determined Duke employees.
