Stress is not a sign of weakness, it is simply a natural response to any unpleasant outside stimulation and it is a natural instinct that the body uses to protect your health. The body is saying, in effect, "this is not good for you, make a change". To ignore it is managerially inefficient and potentially dangerous.
