Ufiecle assistance (english language) please? by ripley82008-08-26 07:37:03
  Comes across as corporate babel by Hieraco 2008-08-26 07:52:13
more than proper English.
It seems to be a common practice in marketing and management to take a noun and use it as a verb. Personally I find it makes understanding what the speaker is saying difficult. Communications should be clear if what is being said is important.

Disclaimer: Although I've spoken a form of English all my life, I am by no means an expert on the subject.
