Management BS

Writer's picture: Dave GobleDave Goble

"We are where we are"

Management informing staff they (we) are in a bad place, with no humility or ownership or recognition of the fact it's probably mostly if not entirely due to incompetence of management in the first place, and (usually) flawed and short-sighted past cost saving "initiatives".

"Push the envelope"

Management informing staff they want them to work harder for no extra reward.

"We're on a journey"

Management informing staff they are embarking on a trip upstream on Shit Creek without a paddle.

"Blue sky thinking"

See "Push the envelope".

"Cloud"

Management in I.T. avoiding the term outsourcing.

"Low hanging fruit"

Boys, watch your balls.

"Helicopter view"

Back in the clouds, looking for ways to save money (and helicopters ain't cheap).

"Idea shower"

Someone think of something (often involves huge amounts of Post-It notes).

"Kick the tyres"

No pressure.
