Meeting dynamics !

I just stepped out of a meeting and I noticed how people put others down......it goes something like this....

If you ever want to put someone down and and categorize them as a simpleton peasant, just choose one of the following statements:

[After 20 minutes of complete bakwaas and redundant talk]...

Person A says: "I think we need to step back and look at the big picture" (The implication here is that everybody has their noses so close to the detail they cannot see significant trends)

Person B retorts: "I agree somewhat, but we need to step back even further and understand the wider context"

Person C joins the fray (not wishing to be outdone): "Actually we need to get back to the core basics and go right back to the beginning"

Finally, Person D chimes in with their own unique twist: "We need to approach from the bottom up, as top down approaches are now redundant".
