Why Business Jargon Isn’t All Bad
[]
HBR IdeaCast
I wonder if there’s also something about the culture of business that seems to inflate the use of jargon, because, you know, I think a lot of people recognize that there is a point to jargon, but at some point people just start using these words and using them all the time, and then they just sound like they don’t even have to be using them, but it becomes this kind of either bro-ish or insidery culture that seems conflated to some people. Is the reason that English is kind of the predominant international business language for many peoples the same reason it is, it became sort of an international language?
