Too Much Corporate Speak

March 27th, 2006 | by Tony Steidler-Dennison |

Here’s a phrase straight out of the corporate-speak manual:

MercuryNews.com

Lay the foundation for accelerating our pace of innovation, including focusing on ways to improve clarity of decision making, drive greater accountability, and reduce layers in the organization so we can move faster.

Where did that quote originate? An internal Microsoft memo, of course, explaining the recent management shakeup to employees.

    “…reduce layers in the organization so we can move faster.”
