I have always hated buzzwords. They are a lazy way to do business because we all say them but no one knows what they really mean.
Anne Fisher at Fortune included some of the ones that I hate the most in and article called "Business Buzzwords that Make You Gag":
"Touch base, as in "Let’s touch base on this tomorrow." Says Bill G.: "I don’t want to touch anyone’s base. It sounds as if it would lead to a sexual harassment lawsuit."
"Thought leader. "Can you please kill this expression?" asks P.J. "It was bad enough to see PR people describe someone as a thought leader, but when I saw someone call himself a thought leader in his own bio, I wanted to throw up."
