Overused Words and Phrases - In the Corporate World

What should I be doing? Its Deepavali time and I am sitting inside a conference room and listening to the LCD projectors sound while 10 others fight it out for some silly reason. Then it struck me to just note down some of those words/phrases that keeps on repeating and here is the list.

A good one too - kept me awake for the entire 3 hour session. I have listed it in Alphabetical order for your easy readability.

I am not making this up, but I heard all these words in the past 3 hours of useless meeting session. I have included only those words which had been repeated more than 3 times, I have a few which came only once but to cut the list short have eliminated them.

So when I sit for the next meeting after Deepavali will update this page with those which I come across.
