There was a time in my busy travel life where I started the day with breakfast in Singapore, flew off to a lunch in Hong Kong and ended my trip with dinner in Tokyo. My advice to any busy CEO or executive contemplating such an ambitious travel schedule – don’t try to mirror that travel path.

As CEO of Synechron, a growing, global business with 16 offices and 6,000+ employees and someone who is on the road 200+ days/year, I’ve clocked more in-flight miles than I care to admit. What I’ve learned is that there are definite do’s and even bigger don’ts that can help maintain health, family happiness and business success for the avid professional traveler.
