Big Words

I have realized that in B-schools and thereafter in companies, several words are used simply because they sound nice and big. Perhaps, there will come a point in my life when I will get accustomed to using these words but as of today, if I hear any five Big Words in quick succession, my brain recedes into stupor or I get an uncontrollable urge to burst out laughing. Examples of a few Big Words are:

Leverage/ leveraging (By far the most overabused word by MBAkind)

Counterparty

Value proposition

Liability Heavy

Stake enhancement

Genesis

Anchor relationship

Selldowns

Metrics

Product architecture



Will keep adding more...
