    We need a consultant for that. Is one in the budget? We should hire someone to see if it's in the budget. Maybe a consultant?

    Let’s take a deep dive into the bandwidth of the value added proposition this afternoon to confirm we have the budget this fiscal years Q3. Then we will circle back in the morning after I touch base with our new game changer in sales.

    Yeah, you need a consultant to consult on what consultant to hire to do the consulting you wanted in the first place.

    Buzz words and stupid trends are just as bad in education.

    Let's schedule a session to plan up a war room in order to level set expectations and draw buy in from all stakeholders.

    At the last company I worked at, when the "war room" assembled you knew some crap was about to go down like layoffs. Of course nobody but the people in the war room knew what was going on, and even then, most of them didn't even know. After 2 several weeks-long "war room" sessions, the company went through a couple of layoffs and then they sold the company.

    Well, for example, the call for "equity" is repeated like a mantra, often to garner support for programs or practices that will achieve the opposite of equity. This is particularly true for reading instruction in the United States. We now have decades of research that demonstrates the most effective way to teach reading at the early elementary level and this body of evidence is largely ignored by teacher preparation programs and many/most districts and schools, for largely philosophical reasons. It's really a massive cluster**** and harms minority and low income students the most.

    At one startup I worked for the entire sales team was required to pound in their chest and scream billions during meetings.

    Popeyes’ mission statement is “to increase franchisee success in every facet of the business. Profitability and service excellence are achieved with a focus on five strategic pillars that guide every business decision.” These five pillars are:

    • Build a distinctive brand
    • Create memorable experiences
    • Grow restaurant profits
    • Accelerate quality restaurants
    • Develop servant leaders.

    Good God! That is the most atrocious pile of BS I’ve ever read. Whoever wrote that or thought it should be locked away for the sake of society.
