Corporate Bingo
Ever have trouble staying awake during meetings or seminars? Here's a little game that will keep you busy.
- Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar or conference call, prepare yourself by drawing a square. Most find that 5"x5" is a good size. Divide the card into columns, five across and five down. That will give you 25 one-inch blocks.
- Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:
- result-driven
- at the end of the day
- out of the loop
- 24/7
- infrastructure
- core competencies
- revisit
- bottom line
- best practice
- strategic fit
- fast track
- think outside the box
- win-win
- proactive
- value-added
- benchmark
- 110%
- client focus(ed)
- paradigm
- game plan
- leverage
- moving forward
- Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.
- When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically or diagonally, stand up and shout, "BULLSHIT!"
Thanks Barney for the Joke.

I guess it's back to Monster.com for me... ;)

What are you doing down here? Don't you have something better to do? Like Go Back To The Top of the page, or even see who created this site? This site is © 2001 - 2010 by the Utterly Boring folks at UtterlyBoring.com. Steal my content, as I probably did, too, just link to my site or the original site. Batteries not included. One size fits all. Not for off-road use. Not for internal use. Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
