‘Think outside the box’.
It was the most used office jargon when I was working in an advertising agency. Every time the visualiser would come and say, “Hey guys, the clients want something new, think outside the box.” “Use your brains and get me something new!”
And we would re-start the discussion, go through the old issues of creative magazines and run through the database of creative advertisements – to create something outside the box.
Then while working with a non-governmental organisation, my supervisor’s most preferred word was “synergy”. He would barge into our chamber and start advising, “Team, I want you guys to collaborate and work together.” “Synergise and deliver 2+2=5!”
Well, these are only few of the office jargons that we come across in our offices every day. Want to know more?
Here’s a list of corporate jargons that we should get rid of, compiled by Pens.com.
