But I’m catching myself using some of them because they’re brainwashing me!!!

  • Strategic
  • Value-added
  • Proactive
  • Best & brightest
  • Think outside the box
  • Collaborative
  • Effective (used in certain ways)
  • Executive
  • Forward-thinking
  • Crucial
  • Programmatic
  • Optimize
  • Complex
  • Critical

I’m sure I will add more to this list.

      Don’t you just love corporate speak? I think they’re trying to sound polished or whatever, but to me, they just trite.

      My favorite? “Utilize”

      Sorry, I’m kinda grumpy.

      Oh yeah, what’s wrong with “use”?
