COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT
Norwalk Connecticut, May 16, 2005 -- Today's Best Practice Central communication tip comes to you courtesy of a survey of 150 senior U.S. executives. According to the executives, the 10 cliches that you don't want to use around them are:
1. At the end of the day
2. Win-win
3. Thinking outside the box
4. Synergy
5. Paradigm
6. Metrics
7. Take if offline
8. Redeployed people
9. Core competency
10. Solution
Reviewing previous Best Practice stories to report the number of times we've used these cliches is strictly prohibited.
Hahahaha! Gotta love corporate emails. I wonder if anybody actually looks at these before sending them out.
