 Re: Its a BBQ.... Telemann is a BBQ

At some point in my corporate IT career, I started getting promos and opportunities based on communication skills.

That was a fun realization, because sometimes effective means defensive (of the company) so obfuscation is the order of the day. Other times its bridging technical subjects for non-technical (exec) audiences.

Two different bosses offered their opinions:

1) "I almost never understand anything you say, but I sure do like the way it sounds." (Retired military guy.)

2) "You really have a way with words, you can stand the language on its ear and make it fart a pickle."

I preferred number 2's insights...
