I'm a bit worried that I might have to do one of these soon too. Did you actually learn anything other than how to add a few miles of red tape to projects?
People seem to like it these days so it can't be all that bad, supposedly quite useful to have on the CV so we'll have to see. :) |

No I in Team, the response to that is there is definetely a 'u' in cnut.

Our new director is fond of "There's 24 hours in every day, how you use them is up to you" :rolleyes: I choose to use them for my own benefit, ta very much.

We need to empower our staff so they can leverage our customer focus so we can all sing from the same hymn sheet and encourage blue sky thinking whilst thinking outside the box to facilitate a win win situation. We don't want any show stoppers which will impact our deliverables so we should concentrate on our core competencies to enable a paradigm shift which will synergise our proactive thinking.

Let's grasp the low hanging fruit.....
:eek: |
Why use "leverage" as a verb? That's fecking tantamount. :mad:
|
I couldn't let this go without some quotes from The Master.
I have some managers at work who quote Brent... but in a serious vein.. sad really. Enjoy..

Anyone that says touch base or keep me in the loop is immediately discredited and if possible ignored.
Not that I'm shallow and form scathing and labelling initial impressions of people in my line :D |
" Cant Understand, Need Training ?? " Often a question I ask the multiple users / managers I deal with :-)
The managers I deal with believe that the thicker the tie knot, the brighter the colour of tie, and the trendier the glasses, the more smarter they are, or the quicker they are at saying "Yes" to their bosses. SBK |
