ABSTRACT

Certain phrases that are part of the workplace are just too good not to use. These are not phrases from management like, “people are our most important asset” or “changing the paradigm on client engagement.” Certain phrases capture the essence of what’s going on in the organization so perfectly that further explanation is never needed. The best phrases don’t come out of the CEO’s office, or from consultants, or off of the framed vision statement on the wall. The best phrases come out of the bowels of the organization. Management may not even know they exist.
