jargon

Examples of jargon in the following topics:

• The Nature of Effective Communication

  • Another barrier is "knowledge-appropriate" communication–using ambiguous legal words or medical jargon with another person who doesn't understand them.
  • Individual linguistic ability is important to consider: will intended targets understand industry-specific jargon, complex words, or colloquialisms?

• Visual Scorecards

  • When communicating business processes to stakeholders, managers are often tempted to rely on jargon and detail-oriented descriptions of strategy and process.
  • The visual scorecard gives stakeholders a clear understanding that jargon and business-speak may not.

• The Nature of Efficient Communication

  • The purpose informs choices of style and tone such as whether or not to use technical language or industry jargon.

• Setting Objectives

  • Strategic management jargon sometimes refers to "Big Hairy Audacious Goals" (BHAGs) in this context.

• Ethics in Organizational Communications

  • In these tools, the use of corporate jargon should be limited; its content should be easily accessible for both internal and external stakeholders.
