Munkey Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 also used in Scrum if people are doing different roles i personally despise 'blue sky thinking' and, worse of all, 'touching base'...always reminds me of touching cloth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-more Mag Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 We should connect offline and do some disruptive ideating about the optics of shifting the paradigm for metrics in the club takeover space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Apologies for the generalisation but my personal experience is that recruiters are the biggest bullshitters I deal with in business Pretty fair generalisation Thought showers was another, now thankfully defunct corporate bullshit phrase. We always used to print out these (bit old now but you get the meaning) and play bullshit bingo in the opening plenary session with the GM at conference, until some knackered decided to jump up and shout ‘house’. http://i.imgur.com/CqhrV21.jpg You dont have the best one on there.....SYNERGY. I work in a corporate oil and gas office here in the US and some of these corporate bullshit words boul my piss to extreme levels. Only last week during a meeting I had one of the superintendents say to me " the water is low and the rocks are showing" apparently he meant we are in the shit. This cunt is a proper blue sky thinking ladder climber It’s always the ladder climbers that spout this kind of shit. They want to sound clever to impress people above them and love to hear themselves talk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This c*** is a proper blue sky thinking ladder climber It’s always the ladder climbers that spout this kind of s***. They want to sound clever to impress people above them and love to hear themselves talk. I feel you could engage in a more purpose-driven implementation of the takeaways from this, LV.

Consortium of one Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 This American has his ear to the ground and his head in the weeds. But when I take a 1000 foot view I see that the deal will be unofficially announced tomorrow and officially announced on Tuesday, although the process will go on for a few more weeks as previously alluded too. The key is Rafa. If they can get his quick buy in, he can start the heavy lifting and bring players in. Low hanging fruit first, then drill down for more. I'll circle back as I get updates.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I work in Agile but only my department. The rest of my company doesnt. Agile has its annoyances but the concept of getting away from management tripe is a good one. Going in to meetings with other departments and managers is a fucking nightmare. Full of 'action points', 'point of contacts', 'agendas' etc. There is one guy who is literally like that management talk superhero comic someone posted on here.

bhoywhonder Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Run it up the flagpole, see if the cat sucks you off. This line was brilliantly delivered by the great Mel Smith in Filthy, Rich and Catflap as Richey was pitching his awful game show formats. Followed by "lets fly your ideas past the observation tower and see which one develops engine failure". Seems wanky management speak was ripe for pisstaking as soon as it was a thing in the 80s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
