    I once got an email from an executive C-level who mentioned adding value at least four times in a single paragraph.

    Annoying as hell because the email hardly contained anything of substance.

      That’s the special executive duckspeak.

      I’ve gone from being righteously angry to bored and hopeless hearing the speech of some particularly skilled practitioners.

      It’s really kind of amazing how this kind of babble can have such an intense emotional impact while textually imparting almost 0 new information.

      It’s all about the vibes conveyed by the medium. Kind of like how trump talks in a way, come to think of it.
