Power Meeting Enthusiast Prints

'Now that I have your attention...'

"Sir, here is your speech for the shareholders' meeting..."

"Does anyone know where the leadership training is taking place?"

'What bothers me about these meetings is even though it's work, I have the nagging feeling I ought to leave and get back to work.'

"Looks like we found the issue."

'It has come to my attention that we need to hedge against our five-year plan.'

"It's a memo from the legal department reminding us to (heh-heh), 'keep our noses clean'."

'I'm sorry, but everyone is in a meeting.'

'Before we start, shall we go round the table, and each share our name and a horrible dark secret from our past.'

"That's six 'noes' and one 'aye', the ayes have it"

"At least we are consistently inconsistent."

'This prediction has a margin of error of plus or minus fifteen...fifteen class-action suits brought against the company.'

'Anyone who opposes the plan I'm about to propose please signify by saying 'I resign.''

'It's settled then. Your people will meet with my people if they ever get me any people.'

'Congratulations, Yomp - we're giving you a bigger carrot!'

Big Shot/Bigger Shot.

'Ms. Snack, prepare the conference room for an executive sting.'

"And, while there's no reason yet to panic, I think it only prudent that we make preparations to panic."

Responsibility and duties

'We need to change the introduction to our annual report. What's another word for bankrupt?'

"Unlike other companies, we are going to take the high road through this rough time, even if, at some point, we're obliged to raid the employee pension fund! Is everybody clear on that?"

Conference Pears

"Next meeting back to paper. Everyone missed doodle."

"Leave Lou to me. I'll eat him and then you can run the company."

"That's Arnie, our resident meeting moth. He doesn't have an office... Just flits all day from one meeting to another. And be careful: he's got a thing for wool!"

'I meet therefore I MANAGE.'

"Yoo hoo, the meeting's over here."

'Thanks for flying in for the meeting.'

"Not the most impressive strategic plan I've ever seen."

"We want to include you in this decision without letting you affect it."

'Who's pumped about this meeting?!'

The Sky Is The Limit

"We could hire another accountant and secretary, but wouldn't it be fun to have a barista?"

"I just wonder if there aren't some team members who could be a bit more focused in meetings."
