Here are some phrases I jotted down during a meeting. I don’t even know what meeting it was. (They were jotted on some scratch paper.) These don’t count so much as Microspeak as they do just assorted management babble.

• “inspiring sustained high performance”
• “fostering agility and resilience”
• “clarifying the journey”
• “unleashing talent”
• “a new or unanticipated experiment”

Sometimes I wish management would speak in plain English. But then the rest of us might realize that they don’t know what they’re talking about.
