Laurie Mitchell, is AVP of Global Wellbeing and Health Management at Unum.  I have known of Laurie for over a decade and have admired her ability to create healthy work programs and benefits that actually improve health.  She talks about creating environments for employees that "make the healthiest choice the easiest choice," and works to support work/life integration for her employee population.  She also values a good night's sleep - music to my ears!
