About the Book

Finally... a reference manual to maintain your sanity in the workplace! We compiled the 212 most annoying terms, words, and phrases managers use to drive the rest of us crazy - whether at the office, on the job site, or (especially) on a conference call. From the meaningless to the overused to the clichéd, we are inundated on a daily basis with annoying and ridiculous business phrases from the lips of otherwise well-meaning (and not-so-well-meaning) professionals. Here are just some of the gems we explore in this 400+ page book: 30,000-Foot View - 800-Pound Gorilla - Action Item - Agree to Disagree - All Hands on Deck - Analysis Paralysis - At the End of the Day - Baby is Ugly - Back to Square One - Bandwidth - Bean Counter - Beat a Dead Horse - Been There, Done That - Behind the Eight Ball - Best Thing Since Sliced Bread - Bio Break - Blocking and Tackling - Bottleneck - Bottom Line - Bring Your 'A' Game - Bubble it Up - Bullet-Point Me Something - Burn the Boats - Buy-In - Change Agent - Chasing Shiny Objects - Circle Back - Come to Jesus Meeting - Connect With - Crawl, Walk, Run - Cross the T's and Dot the I's - Deliverables - Devil is in the Detail - Direct the Traffic - Do a Deep Dive - Dog in this Fight - Double-Edged Sword - Drink from a Firehose - Ducks in a Row - Eat Your Own Dog Food - Elephant in the Room - Face Time - Game Changer - Get into Bed - Give 110% - Go Forward Basis - Go Slow to Go Fast - Hard Stop - Heavy Lifting - Herding Cats - Hit the Ground Running - How the Sausage is Made - It's All in the Details - Juice is not/is Worth the Squeeze - Jumped the Shark - Land the Plane - Level Set - Light a Fire Under - Lost in the Sauce - Low-Hanging Fruit - Move the Goalposts - Move the Needle - Not my First Rodeo - On Our Radar - Optics - Par for the Course - Paradigm Shift - Pee in your Pool - Playing Phone Tag - Point Person - Push the Envelope - Put a Pin in It - Putting Out Fires - Raise the Bar - Reaching Out - Reinvent the Wheel - Riding Shotgun - Screw the Pooch - Seamless Integration - Skin in the Game - Smell Test - Solutions Provider - Soup to Nuts - Stake in the Ground - Synergistically - Take it Offline - There is No "I" in Team - Think Outside the Box - Thought Leader - Transition Phase - Trying to Boil the Ocean - Under the Bus - Unpack - Up to Speed - Warts and All - Wheelhouse - Where the Rubber Meets the Road - Win-Win Scenario - Work Smarter, Not Harder - Wrap Your Head Around - You Don't Know What You Don't Know.
