Business Cliches

I’ve been working my way through some of the common business cliches I hear at work, generally publishing a new one each Friday. I research the term and the origins, and sometimes I create images to demonstrate the concept. The list of terms to come is on the right – but feel free to add a comment if you’d like to suggest a new term, or a resource you like. If you like these posts you’ll probably enjoy playing Bullshit Bingo, and you may enjoy generating some radically new Web phrases.
