Words and phrases I've recently heard used at work without any sense of irony (or shame):
"Learn" as a noun - "one of the big learns from this project".
"Lens" used as a synonym for "layer" (it's already in common use as a synonym for perspective, which is annoying in its own way) - "there are lots of lenses to this project".
"We need to create energy" (not sure they've heard of conservation of energy).
What are your favourite / most sphincter-tighteningly awful examples of work-speak?
