Words Leaders Shouldn't Say

  • I don’t know what your problem is, but I bet it’s hard to pronounce!
  • Ahh…I see the screw-up fairy has visited us again.
  • I’m already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.
  • Thank you. We’re all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.
  • You started out with nothing and you still have most of it left.
  • Errors have been made. Others will be blamed.
  • Chaos, panic and disorder-my work here is done.
  • Hmm… It seems like you stopped to think and forgot to start again!

EXTRA: If you want your spouse to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say, talk in your sleep!
