BULLSHIT BINGO
Do you keep falling asleep in meetings and seminars?
What about those long and boring conference calls?
Here's a way to change all of that.

1). Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call,
prepare yourself by drawing a square. You'll find that 5" x 5" is a good
size.)

2). Divide the card into columns - five across and five down. This will
give you 25 one-inch blocks.

3). Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

* synergy
* strategic fit
* core competencies
* best practice
* bottom line
* revisit
* expeditious
* 24/7
* out of the loop
* benchmark
* value-added
* pro-active
* win-win
* think outside the box
* fast track
* result-driven
* empower (or empowerment)
* knowledge-based
* at the end of the day
* touch base
* mind-set
* client focused
* paradigm
* game plan
* leverage

4). Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/
phrases.

5). When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand
up and shout "BULLSHIT!"
