An ineffective member of Top Level Mgmt bought in when a work situation has become troublesome but a shouter has failed to bring things back on track. Whilst the aim is for the pointer to fix things by putting the fear of god into a team they generally fail and pass the blame to other members of the team as a result gaining a significant bonus.
Christ alive, they've got a pointer involved, watch your back
The pointer has had his bonus, have you seen his new Bentley?

Most often found in Spain or Le Touquet in France. The offender is usually a pretentious individual who thinks he is superior to all others.
The drape effect is achieved with a cashmere sweater, preferably mustard or lemon coloured, which is neatly passed over the shoulders to be worn in a pointless but 'look at me' style.

Look at that 'sweater draper' he really knows he looks the business! The mustard cashmere and navy corduroy slacks really set off his 'swank'.

An ineffective member of Senior Mgmt bought in when a work situation has become troublesome. Whilst the aim is for the shouter to fix things by putting the fear of god into a team they generally fail and slip sadly away. At this time a 'Pointer' is often engaged.
The project was so bad that they brought in a shouter to get things back on track
