Study links falling for corporate buzzwords with poor decision-making

An anonymous reader writes: The study combed through shareholder reports and interviews with Fortune 500 business executives, and found examples of the nonsensical ways that Executives state things and phrase things in their messaging and public communications. Then used an algorithm that would create new sentences based on these structures that sounded like real speech. On about 1,000 different workers, the study tested to see whether or not they could tell the difference between real language and these absurd nonsensical statements. People that struggle with that the most tend to also struggle with decision-making in the workplace.
