Bedroom Boardroom Strategist Mugs

Businesspeople gather in bedroom setting 'They can't regulate us in here.'

"I'm going to bombard you with graphs until you agree with me."

'And were there a point to your proposal, Henderson - What would it be?'

'Now that I have your attention...'

"Marshall, somewhere out there, just waiting for us, is a loophole in the system."

"Miracles happen, gentlemen, but they don't come cheap."

'When we get there let me do the double talking.'

"I'm razzled, but not dazzled."

'And I'm happy to say, that since the merger...'

"Remember...when the going gets tough...DELEGATE!"

'The sunglasses idea would have worked if you hadn't started snoring.'

"My report to the board was perfect. They did not understand a word of it and now think I'm smarter than them."

'Great news this quarter! Losses are up in smoke, profits are high, and we're seeing lots of green!'

'Ok, here's the meeting agenda ... it's gonna be a long one.'

'The good news is, we did as well as expected last quarter. The bad news is, we didn't expect to do too well.'

"Better than a business model, I have a business scheme."

'I had a thought. Let's scrap everything and start a new fiscal year right now.'

'So do you want me to minute that George is dying of boredom and Nigel will rip my head off if I don't stop boring him with my blather?'

"Listen to everybody's opinions? Please, we're not that desperate."

"I see we're going up against the Big Guys."

"Peterson proposes we move out of the mountains."

"Oh dear...I don't think negotiations are going too well..."

"They've agreed to the merger, the sticking point is who is swallowing who?"

'How did the 'I want you all to take a pay cut or leave' strategy go down?'

'To close the deal, I had to make some minor concessions.'

'I have been hearing some disturbing comments about you, Parker, some of your employees think you're a nice guy!'

'Our job will be to drag the competition down to our level.'

"Before I read the financial report I have to ask... do any of you have a weapon?"
