Buzzword Ass
"Let's circle back, take it offline, and align on synergies."
This certified ass has not spoken plainly since roughly 2014. Meetings are opportunities to leverage learnings. Problems are challenges. Challenges are opportunities. Firing people is right-sizing. They will double-click on that, take it offline, and circle back once they have socialized the deck with key stakeholders to ensure alignment on the north star. Beneath the vocabulary there may be a real point. Nobody has ever reached it. The words have formed a protective shell around any actual meaning, and the shell has forty thousand followers. The Committee ran the last post through translation and received one usable sentence: we are behind schedule.
