FOTv - “Buzzword or BS” with JLee, Kathy, William and KD…

Hey!!!  We’re back just like we said we’d be back… 


As promised, here’s our next episode of FOTv,  our TV show that features the cast at FOT.  TheFOT-Badge---Go-Big format’s pretty simple – we riff on a few topics, and you can’t be all war and peace and stuff.  You’ve got a minute to make your point, then you’re out. OR YOU’LL NEVER BE ON THIS TV SHOW AGAIN… (at least that’s what I’m told).  The Director is a total Soup Nazi…


Today, we’re channeling the game show skills of Wink Martendale (card sharks anyone?) and playing a little game we like to call “Buzzwords”.  In this episode, JLee hosts and asks Kathy, William and KD to judge whether buzzwords/buzzphrases like “Extra Mile”, “Seat at the Table”, “I’m Not a Micro-Manager” and “Strategic” are BRILLIANT OR BS….


JLee gets to be both judge and jury at the end to decide who won.  Hit us in the comments and tell us whether she got it right….



(Editor’s Note – we’re working on getting these segments broken up into bite size pieces of 3 minutes, and when we do, you’ll see them start popping up randomly during the week.  Why?  Because we care, and we know you can’t make it through a 60-second SuperBowl commercial without checking your Twitter stream…)

FOT Background Check

Kris Dunn
 Kris Dunn is Chief Human Resources Officer at Kinetix and a blogger at The HR Capitalist and the Founder and Executive Editor of Fistful of Talent. That makes him a career VP of HR, a blogger, a dad and a hoops junkie, the order of which changes based on his mood. Tweet him @kris_dunn. Oh, and in case you hadn't heard the good word, he's also jumped into the RPO game as part owner of a rising shop out of ATL, Kinetix. Not your mama's recruiting process outsourcing, that's for sure... check 'em out.

    Hey Guys! Great show!
    I’ve got a few more words for you. . .
    a) Paridigm Shift (gag)
    b) Peel back the Onion. . . .
    Also—you’ve missed the mark with Kris Dunn. I saw him strollin’ around Bham in a Members Only Jacket. Looked like he was the only member. . . .

    Wow, KD went bold with the Dan LeBatard Bam! Personally, I love it. I don’t know if a sports fan will be crazy about the Bam, but it works.
    I also like no one said push on any of the topics. HR are deciders and that’s how it’s suppose to be.
