ManagementSpeak: Just give me a quick, Volkswagen solution.
Translation: Just give me a Rolls-Royce solution, and do it as quickly and cheaply as the Volkswagen version.
Tim Lawrence joins the KJR Club by giving us a Rolls-Royce translation of a Volkswageny phrase.
When you have a flat tire, do you:
A. Keep driving, complaining about how bumpy the road is?
B. Pump air into the tire and hope it won’t leak out this time?
C. Bolt on a new axle?
D. Repair or replace the tire?
In far too many companies the answer is, for some reason, “Anything but D.”
