This is a question Annoying words and phrases

Marketing bollocks, buzzword bingo, or your mum saying "fudge" when she really wants to swear like a trooper. Let's ride the hockey stick curve of this top hat product, solutioneers.

Oh yes, indeed..
I have to listen to management toss all the time.

I put that very question to my boss - "Why not say 'in the future' instead of 'going forward'?"

I have yet to receive a response. He looked at me like a landed fish when I mentioned it.

I'm sure there are Clockwork Orange-style brainwashing campaigns conducted against management staff, that would explain why they all seem to use the same stock phrases, that mean precisely fuck-all.
