“Blah-blah, Ginger, blah, blah blah…” – #1
"Our planning and implementation leverage best practice, proven principles, practical experience and world-class thinking. This enables you to translate business imperatives into action through people and their leadership."
I've decided to start "The Blah-blah Ginger file"; a place to remind all of us how not to communicate.
(Title inspired by Gary Larson's "The Far Side" cartoon. [What we say to dogs]: Ok Ginger, I've had it! You stay out of the garbage! Understand Ginger? Stay out of the garbage or else!" [What they hear]: "Blah, blah, blah Ginger, blah,blah,blah, blah Ginger")

David,
One of my favorite Larson cartoons! And a very appropriate use of it!

Hi Steve, the man is a genius. When I lived in Portugal, an American tourist I befriended used to try and explain the cartoons to me, and even that was funny. He was kind enough to send me a big Far Side book and I absolutely loved the book. Thanks for stopping by.
