Management
Blue sky thinking - this does not imply that anything imaginative is about to happen. Blue skies you say, blue, like the sky up there, the normal, mundane, every day sky? What about some Green Sky, that would be unexpected wouldn't it?

Outside the box - the only box you're going to end up, inside or otherwise, is your fucking coffin, you over-paid prick.

Going forward - presumably, through context, you're referring to the passage of time here? Yes? Good. That's what time does. Unless you drive home in a particularly pyrogenic car (and no, you picky medical sods, I do not mean in the sense of a fever.) How about we all just revert to "In future" and stop sounding like we're on board some kind of managerial mono rail to hell.

Another euphemism for having one's head in the clouds.

I use the odd bit of management speak, it's good for winding up the drones.

Jesus
I hate all of that so much, without any real reason, that I couldnt actually bring myself to post about it.

I work for a huge multinational but managed at a local level by unimaginative twats with no inspiration or leadership. They feel that if you rattle off some of that bullshit it makes you a good manager.
