· Vague jargon terms may mask real problems· Presenters may lose audiences when they use jargon that is too technical or industry specificWhile most agree that jargon overuse is a bad habit, it can be a hard habit to break. The“You’re Using Business Jargon To Avoid Solving Problems—Here’s How To Stop” insists that the use of jargon can actually stifle solution development. The article asserts, “Jargon…usually prevents you from seeing problems clearly, let alone deconstructing them.
To minimize jargon, the most obvious direct step is to try to catch yourself in the moment when you’re planning to use a trite, less meaningful phrase and instead press yourself to find a more specific way to make your point. For example, instead of asking a team to “think outside the box,” perhaps you’d ask them to “consider a new and different business model beyond the current advertising driven one.” To minimize jargon, the Idealist article also suggests getting feedback from others.
It’s really no wonder that business jargon gets overused. They’re lazy phrases that we default to instead of thinking critically and identifying specific language to express our ideas. Indeed, expressing one’s perspective with more clarity and confidence can be harder than it sounds, but the great news is that those who do it well will often distinguish themselves from the pack.

Thank you for the feedback, let's park it and discuss it offline.
