"Whether it’s one person or many, when new folks join the team, they are in social shock. Everywhere they look, there are new faces that are speaking a strange language full of curious proper nouns and baffling acronyms. Every single detail is slightly, annoyingly, and uncomfortably different."

It's not a stretch to translate that small tidbit to a sales team, either.

I always cringe when I hear sales guys talking to prospects in jargon-filled-acronym-crap speech. How in the world is that supposed to make some middle manager you've had exactly 2 conversations with feel more comfortable?
