PowerPoint

Failure, unprepared, usual for the individual.
Tom is powerpoint in every single meeting, he looks through his papers, which are blank, and then hands off everything to Jim because Jim feels sorry for him. But he's Tom's son so what are you going to do.

- The only thing I can do now is put them in funny poses and leave.

Powerpoint culture

A work culture that encourages dumb presentations and meetings about strategy based on gut feelings and hand gestures. The strategy is never really executed after the presentation. Also the exhibitors usually support setting goals as a way of life and endless boring conversations about the structure of their team.
The presentations almost always use Microsoft's Powerpoint software.

The culture worships graphic design and helps incompetent people to keep their jobs even though if they were to die tomorrow, the company’s profits would not be harmed and even improved.

If the presentations are on stage it can also be called "TED culture".
I got fired. I have to feed my kids ... Jessica's dad arranged for me to do a temporary office cleaning job. But it's not so bad, a break from the powerpoint culture. You don't even have to send weeklies to the boss there.
