I had to attend a meeting at work earlier today. It was neither enjoyable nor useful. The speakers employed a succession of absurd phrases such as "footprint", "footfall", "outside the envelope", and "singing from the same hymn sheet". Speak English you poltroons!!
Sheep-like use of this silly jargon only serves to highlight the sheer vacuity and bankruptcy of management methods today - short termism, style over content, buzzwords over substance.
Is there a section in the MBA handbook which commends the use of as much meaningless, dribbling jargon as possible, so as to reveal the speaker to be an utter nincompoop?
It would appear so.
