They are managers. They are paid to deal with stress. They aren't
destressed by playing golf...that only postpones it till they get
back. They are destressed by taking care of problems...not being able
to eliminate the problems is what caused stress in the first place.
Hold the seminars in Bedford Styvesant Brooklyn and instruct them to
fix the problems and you'll be taking care of their stress.
