I have to listen to this crap spoken at meetings all the time. ( and written in ' policy documents, and procedures)
Our business has not really changed much in decades, ( I been doing similar stuff for getting on 40 years) albeit we now have computers to 'help'
But, every five years or so, we get a new director, who then ousts the last director's implants, and then implants his own team (who all talk his particular version of management speak)
I just ignore it to be honest, I don't give a toss what they say. ( they talk a lot, and say little of value. )
At the end of the day, I get a drawing, a tech spec and I find someone to make it.
Thankfully Engineering and metallurgy , have ignored this stuff , they still write the tech specs the same way they always have , the drawing office don't litter their drawings with this drivel either, (and legal, have their very own language) and that rarely changes either.
So for me , stakeholders will remain to be someone standing around holding some sticks.
