Bringing great attention to, and making big fanfare about something that in reality has little or no possibility of sucess, or has far less significant outcome than originally expressed. Originates from the establishment of a Committee established to purportedly reduce the debt of the federal government in 2011. Unfortunately the committee and the establishment of this committee was all a ruse, and failed to produce any significant debt reduction, but more legislative back-biting in congress. Alt. - See Smoke and Mirrors.

A group set up to listen to, learn from and act on the needs of the team to help make everyone's experience of coming to work more honest, fulfilling and fun. The Cardboard Committee aims to give people a space to make suggestions on how we can better our work culture and environment, and come up with ways to transform those ideas into practical and tangible habits that create change.
I'm going to take the time to answer the Cardboard Committee's survey thoughtfully because they value my opinion and I believe that they're going to help bring about positive change in the workplace.
