Fuck knows...
the accompanying 'handy sized' PDF was just words placed in a lovely corporate style. It's basically saying we should all 'talk' the same way in communication (spoken, written etc). In other words, act like a bunch of manager-speak corporate robots. I hate my job

Just walk in to HR and in your best robot voice announce
"This work unit finds the new tone of voice 'guidelines' ridiculous, patronising and vaguely crypto-fascist. This work unit cannot comply.'

Ooooo better idea...
create some 'Treating your co-workers like grown, adult, human beings guidelines' and email them around.
