From ‘Sunday scaries’ to ‘rage applying’, workplace buzzwords to take seriously – and those to ignore via IrishTimesBiz

I have always thought so. But last week I spoke to Anthony Klotz, the American academic who coined the biggest buzzword of all – the Great Resignation. He persuaded me the data shows a more nuanced picture.
