Business Babble
Let's play a drinking game. Every time you hear this in a meeting, let's have a drink:
Let's do a deep dive on this topic.
Let's be sure to stay within the rails during this project.

This will result in shifting paradigm of what we know.
Let's look for the blue ocean opportunity.
Can we circle back on that?
Let's park that idea in the parking lot.
Business Babble
I don't know about you, but business babble (which I call bisno-babble) is driving me nuts. To me, such babble is distracting, annoying and reflects badly on the bisno-babbeler. For Pete's sake, just say what you mean in plain language.
Using bisno-babble doesn't make me think you know more than you do. I am more concerned about the content of what you are saying than the jargon that you use.
Let's get back to simple language. Let's communicate in a way that actually reflects what we are trying to say.
Useless Babble
I don't know about you, but if bisno-babble was a drinking game, I would be hammered in most meetings after about 10 minutes. But perhaps that would make the meetings more tolerable.
Please don't contribute to meeting intoxication.
Do you say what you mean in a simple, straight forward manner?
Or are you guilty of using unnecessary Bisno-babble?
