If you’re anything like me, there are certain business words or phrases in that will make you scream if you hear them uttered from anyone’s lips just one more time.  Buzzword Bingo has swept across Corporate America for a reason, folks. 

Making lists sort of soothes me, so I started making a list of every business word/phrase that I never want to hear again.  These things tend to go around like viruses – one day nobody is using the word “robust” to describe anything but wine and Rubenesque women.  The next thing you know, everyone and their mothers are referring to their “robust” portfolios and their “robust” deliverables and their “robust” robustness.  Can you tell “robust” is the one that I am hating right now?

Anyway.  Leave a comment and let us know what buzzword you’re sick and tired of.
