used primarily in a sales environment

An individual(usually in a position of power)who is unable or unwilling to move forward with new ideas, methods to improve their business or get key decision makers involved because they are stuck in their old ways of thinking; becoming as worthless as a potted plant that just takes up desk space.
"I had a great conversation with Ann today but she's as worthless as a potted plant. She can't even get our proposal in front of her SVP, let alone their CFO."
