Abstract
As part of this special issue on executive health, our consulting editor, J ack Veiga, wets asked to poll AME's executive advisory panel. Out of the fu ll panel, 50 executives responded-giving us a glimpse into their firms' hea lth practices and their own health maintenance practices. What follows is a mock panel interview, a hypothetical rendition of what or dialogue might s ound like with the entire panel based on responses to the survey. In the in terview, we hear about the factors that contribute to executive health prob lems, learn what executives do to maintain their health, and find out that some executives are afraid to reveal their health problems because to do so might make them appear weak.
