Do you know this...

Ever wondered where management blurb comes from...! Simply employ the 'MBA Buzzword' writing method. There are three columns of words involved, as follows: 0. balanced 0. management 0. contingency 1. total 1. organization 1.hardware or S/W 2. integrated 2. reciprocal 2. projection 3. compatible 3. monitored 3. time-frame 4. synchronized 4. digital 4. concept 5. optimal 5. modular 5. programming 6. responsive 6. transitional 6. mobility 7. functional 7. incremental 7. capability 8. parallel 8.third-generation 8. flexibility 9. systemized 9. policy 9. options Just select any three-digit number; then use the corresponding buzzwords from the above grid, e.g., 257:'integrated modular capability.' Don't worry if it doesn't make sense to you; it won't mean anything to anyone else either, but they all will think you're just smarter than they are so they won't say anything!! You can then propose 'systemized monitored options' (939) to achieve 'optimal transitional flexibility' (568) OR ‘synchronized modular capability’ (457) to achieve ‘integrated reciprocal mobility’ (226) !! It’s funny how the blurb hangs together...
