Hey everyone!
I just wanted to ask if I am the only one who is sick and tired of being told how to talk, walk etc. etc. I hit the wall and am officially leaving right in the middle of 4th quarter. I am sick of "Target Lingo", LET ME USE MY OWN WAY OF TALKING TO AND MANAGING MY TEAM AND BUSINESS! I have grown to hate using terms such as "following up", "opportunity" and "demonstrating courage" along with many others. Moreover, I feel bad for new team leaders when I hear them talk like this, it just makes me embarrassed for them for some reason. My question is, am I wrong? Is making everyone a cookie cutter manager a good way to develop people? I don't think so, the only thing I've learned in 3 years is how to grind my teeth whenever I use these lame, stupid terms. I can't keep up the charade anymore.
Thoughts?
