I don't know about you, but I get fed up listening to all the corporate buzz-words that are constantly thrown around in meetings and sent through e-mail. You know those words used that have no real meaning, they are just filler, like when "the rubber hits the road" or how about such "value-added" phrases like, touch base, paradigm shift, cross-functional, customer driven, helicopter view, and win-win. After working in corporate culture for awhile you will struggle and find yourself one day accidentally talking about "synergies," being "on the ground," or how you are working with "best-of-breed" products. If you are sure the buzzwords are spilling over into your writing, there is a free application called Bullfighter 1.2 that was written by Deloitte that is available from http://fightthebull.com/bullfighter.asp

This valuable tool will integrate into Word, Outlook, and Powerpoint and allow you to rate the bull factor of your writing, and will give corrections for useless corporate phrases. You can de-bull your documents. So at the end of the day, you will have a cleaner document without leveraging all the corporate bells and whistles. It will be easier to read, a win-win for everyone. :)
