China has become a country obsessed with wellness. Over the past few episodes, we have had several guests highlight the growing importance of wellness, whether it relates to fitness or changes in the country's demographics. We thought we'd take the opportunity to take a deeper look at wellness. According to a McKinsey study, 87% of Chinese consumers consider wellness a top priority in their lives. Why is wellness such an important topic these days in China? Is this something that all brands should be incorporating into their communications?
To discuss the growing importance of wellness for brands, we are proud to welcome back Henry Shen, Chief Strategy Officer at McCann Health Greater China. Henry brings over 19 years of experience, including business strategy, brand communication, and digital integration. Henry and the team at McCann Health serve many of the leading pharma brands and are based in Shanghai. Henry is not just a supporter of physical, but also mental wellness. Henry truly embraces wellness as a licensed holistic therapist.
