Doomsday Files for Napoleon Narcissus

This post that sort of blends ideas
from Polly LaBarre’s suggestion that too much of the language that leaders use
in organizations is worn out biz-buzz, what she calls “jargon
monoxide”
and a post a bit earlier quoting the government employee who,
along with her co-workers, maintained “asshole
diaries”
about a nasty coworker that were apparently instrumental in her “mysterious”
departure from the workplace.  I got a
note from a guy who works for a demeaning CEO, and he explained to me that he is
the curator for the careful records that he his colleagues are keeping of his
actions, which they call their “Doomsday Files” for “Napoleon Narcissus.” I think Polly
would approve of the eloquent language!
