SUMMARY:
Fit for the Economy!
Through the
dynamics of the markets, new demands constantly arise with respect to
business success in companies. The subject of Prevention
as an Economic Factor is more and
more often the focal-point in economic questions.
In addition
to the implementation of general marketing concepts, it makes good
sense to integrate „prevention”
in daily business/economic life, in communication and in the way of
corporate thinking/strategy.
