    Of all the banal, euphemistic corporate-speak that has entered our lexicon lately nothing grates quite like "synergy"

        That's a bad one, but it's sort of dated. Lately I take offense at "sustainable" and "game - changer."

        It's not a bad word by itself. It just synergizes with a lot of other corporatespeak to create something even more vague and meaningless.

        It's a perfectly good word with a perfectly good meaning. Used properly, it can be a great aid to communication. Of course, most corporate speakers don't even know what it means, much less how to use it properly. But that's true of most such buzzwords.
