The best way I have found is to use the MIDI tool to set the volume level (CC 7) for the whole staff before making any other volume adjustments for expressions. I find it useful to set staves to a default volume of something lower than full (eg 96) so there is plenty of upward room for crescendi. You might also play with lowering the key velocity for some instruments, as with many synth patches, a higher key velocity produces a more pronounced articulation. If you want to scale everything because it is already in your score I believe (I'm not in front of Finale now--running OS X, and it's just not possible!!) that you can do a percentage-based reduction of CC 7 data. If not that, try a percentage reduction of key velocities for the whole staff, which I am certain is possible.
