Scott Weiner facilitates his Stress Relief Workshop with optimal understanding of individual strengths and complexities. He combines humor and professionalism in his workshop and entertains.” Migdalia Torres, LCSW, Cancer Care Organization For nonprofit organizations, Scott E. Weiner facilitates brainstorming sessions, using a process for applied imagination and deliberate creativity based on the 6-step Alex Osborn-Sid Parnes Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process. CPS is a framework for creativity that has been researched, developed, proven, and taught for more than 50 years by the Creative Education Foundation and at the annual international Creative Problem Solving Institute (www.cpsiconference.com), where Mr. Weiner has been a participant and facilitator. "Scott Weiner was gracious enough to provide a pro-bono workshop for the members of Gilda's Club Westchester, a non-profit cancer support community in White Plains, NY, and he also facilitated a workshop for our staff. Working with Scott Weiner has been a pleasure from day one. He is extremely knowledgeable, and his workshops are useful and practical. He is dedicated to helping others better themselves through stress reduction, and provides simple tips to reducing stress. His techniques were easy to learn and simple to use and he had great ideas about how to integrate stress reduction into your everyday life. Feedback for Mr. Weiner's workshop was fabulous; they loved it and want him to return!" Christine Consiglio, LCSW, Program Coordinator, Gilda's Club Westchester One of Scott E. Weiner’s Stress Relief Workshops would teach people how to reduce their stress and at the same time can serve as a fundraiser — with a portion of the participant’s ticket used for fundraising. This would be a unique event for specific audiences such as singles, job seekers, or seniors. A brand new study released this March shows that one-third of Americans are chronically overworked — and even more feel overwhelmed by their jobs ("Overwork in America" by the Families and Work Institute). The American Institute of Stress points out that 1 million workers every day are absent due to stress. It has been that estimated that the vast majority of physician office visits are for stress-related ailments and complaints.
