Business Matters' Office Chat 'checked in' with its 'team players' to schedule a 'braindump' to 'get a handle on' the 'best of breed' in the most frustrating 'buzzwords' out there. We opened a 'can of worms' and really 'pushed the envelope'. These words would have Samuel Johnson turning in his grave. Start has become 'get go', commitment has become 'buy in', teach has become 'upskill' and a 100% commitment is no longer enough with at least 150% being required. Some of our personal favourites: "Let's touch base about that offline" AKA lets talk about this another time "Pre-prepared" Is there any other kind of prepared? "Trim the fat" AKA removing unproductive staff or resources Share with us the best 'buzzwords' you've heard... BM Team |
