The Buzzword Leader

Why is it Return On Investments
when one’s only Interest is in Returns,
to achieve my end, when I see lethargy
I tag my team as lacking in Synergy.

In my mad pursuit masked as Goals, I drive my team
In my Vision and Mission statements, what I say beam;
To appear caring, I balm my ego and paint a Big Picture
sheltering in Corporate Social Responsibility, I rapture.

When I don’t make money, I term it Negative Growth
Oh! this is a Roadblock in my Roadmap that I loathe,
At wits end, I hate to see myself in this mess, I press
Out of Box thinking the team must Leverage to progress.

Attack the pain point, I tell my team else you will rot
deep dive meaning show up with results that are sought, 
this is the New Norm meaning old rules to stick to
only if Working from or far from Home gives my due.

In my FOMO, I bring every Buzz word to bear
these Low Hanging Fruits are all I can effortlessly share.
