Even in traditional offices,“the lingua franca of corporate America has gotten much more e

motional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago," said Ha rvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn She started spinning off examples.“If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990,we would see much less frequent use of terms like Journey, mission,passion. There were goals,there were strategies,there were objectives,but we didn’t talk about energy;we didn’t talk about passion.”

Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very “team”-oriented-and not by coincidence.“Let’s not forget sDorts-in male-dominated corporate America,it’s still a big deal. It’s not explicitly conscious;it’s the idea that I’m a coach,and you’re my team,and we’re in this together. There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies,but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win".

These terms a re also intended to infuse work with meaning-and,as Khu rana points out,increase allegiance to the firm.“You have the importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations:Terms like vision,values,passion,and purpose,”said Khurana.

This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance The “mommy wars” of the 1990s a re still going on today, prompting arguments about why women still can&39;t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg&39;s Lean In,whose title has become a buzzword in its own right. Terms like unplug,offline,life-hack,bandwidth,and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the office and the home But if your work is your “passion,” you’II be more likely to devote yourself to it,even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.

But this seems to be the irony of office speak:Everyone makes fun of it,but manage rs love it,companies depend on it,and regular people willingly absorb it As Nunberg said,“You can get people to think it’s nonsense at the same time that you buy into it.” In a workplace that’s fundamentally indifferent to your life and its meaning office speak can help you figure out how you relate to your work-and how your work defines who you are.

第9题

The most traditional definition of a human communi...

The most traditional definition of a human community was "a group of people larger than a family that interact." A community may include people who have at least one common point of interest. In the past, community members lived relatively close to one another in one geographical location: in the same village, town, or city. Nowadays, however, the word community can mean a national, an international, or even an online group of interacting individuals. Therefore, a "new" definition of community might be "a group of people that recognize that they have something in common."
