Researchers from Cornell University have developed what they call "the Corporate Bullshit Receptivity Scale," a tool designed to measure how impressed people are by business school-style jargon that sounds strategic but says very little.
The findings, described in a recent study, suggest that employees who rate this sort of language as insightful are more likely to struggle with analytical thinking and workplace decision-making.

Gluttony became “eating seed oils.”
Sloth became “suboptimal sleep hygiene.”
Penance became “cold plunges.”
Grace became “social media engagement.”
The religious architecture survived.
Only the theology changed.
