Fighting the
bull
Virginia
Business
August 2003
Looking
to synergize your priorities, synch up your game plan
and envisioneer paradigm shifts? If so — or if
you even understood the previous sentence for that matter
— you’re definitely not ready for the Bullfighter
Challenge. Bullfighter, masterminded by the folks at
Deloitte Consulting, is a new software package that
operates a lot like a spellchecker. Instead of flagging
misspellings and typos, Bullfighter checks documents
for the wordy mumbo-jumbo that has crept into the business
world’s vocabulary with alarming momentum. Think
you could pass the challenge? If the following buzzwords
or phrases are part of your daily verbal repertoire,
chances are you need to cut the bull.
•
repurposeable
• value added
• knowledge capital
• mindshare
• empowerment
• personal value proposition
• paradigm
• bandwidth
• leverage
