FOWYCC

"Focus On What You Can Control". This is a statement from leadership to make leadership feel like they are saying something substantive instead of saying that they don't know or care. If this phrase is used, it is a strong indicator of Leadershit, as opposed to Leadership.

It can be thought of as the "thoughts and prayers" of the tech layoff space

I know that some of you might be concerned that you have no employment by the end of the month, but you really need to FOWYCC.
