committed to continue to focus

"...committed to continue to focus on debottlenecking and desilofication," droned the facilitator, "empowering and incentivizing customer-centric engagement paradigms..."

Gazing into her notebook, Brenda felt sleepy.

"Brenda in this brainstorm we don't want to see words on paper: they must float free in minds and mouths..."

"That's OK" she replied, "ran out of ink hours ago".

Hi Stan, a draft response to your enquiry is under consideration by the Review Board, however an affirmative outcome is anticipated. In other words, "yes, I do!"

Thanks for stopping by.

Nessa, an alternative version of an old saying: "those who can, do. Those who can't, facilitate."

Brian, I'm ashamed and embarrassed to admit that as a corporate communications consultant, I'm one of the people who produce the meaningless empty crap that passes as language. (I'm pretty good at it too, though it's nothing to be proud of).

Hi PattiKen, great word: "doublequackduckspeak" --- sounds orwellian. It's interesting how so much of Orwell's nightmare vision of the future is now becoming / has become reality.

Thanks all for your comments.
