Mark Cuban is no fan of jargon — and the billionaire is far from alone. But using jargon words when you could opt for something simple and clear instead, typically has the opposite effect, according to Cuban. "Always use the simpler word," Cuban told Wired in an October video Q&A. "There's no reason to ever use the word 'cohort' when you could use the word 'group,'" he said. You sound stupid when you use the word 'cohort,' because you're trying to sound smart."

When Barbara Corcoran started her real estate firm at age 23, she quickly noticed a difference between herself and her competitors. Corcoran bought a wool coat with a brown and white print, high collar and a $320 price tag before tax, she said.

"I wore my coat for the next four years, and it was the best investment I ever made. Nearly three decades after founding her firm, Corcoran sold it to brokerage firm NRT for $66 million.

☆ Spotify's CEO sent a memo announcing layoffs. It also contained 'a powerful example of toxic positivity.'

Spotify is laying off about 6% of its employees, CEO Daniel Ek announced in a memo. This might as well have been the message Spotify CEO Daniel Ek shared in a memo announcing layoffs at the company. Of Ek's comment about doing his best work, Galinsky said, "That's just completely lost here." "In hindsight, I was too ambitious in investing ahead of our revenue growth," Ek wrote. The standard CEO memo announcing layoffs can seem formulaic, Galinsky said.
☆ Compass CEO Robert Reffkin's memo on how to dump poor performers was good, but here's how it could have been better

But the Compass memo, while giving strong examples of what workers shouldn't be doing, didn't offer as much guidance about what the company needs from employees right now. But Galinsky said the memo lacked details about what exactly employees need to do in order to succeed at Compass right now.
