Both the literal and metaphorical, formation is the rallying call to both Beyonce fans and Beyonce haters.

For the fans its a call to stand up and fight for what is just, what you believe in, for cultural diversity and for equality among colors, sexes, orientations, wealth classes and any oppressed demographic.

For the haters, get "in formation" is more of a metaphorical meaning. Inform yourself! Just because you don't quit get it or understand it, doesn't mean it's against you and you should hate it.
(Employers found to be paying women less at your job?)
"Ok ladies, now let's get in formation!"

(Michigan bans sodomy)

Mass Formation 

A phenomenon in mob psychology where a large group spontaneously joins into a monolithic, like-minded alliance with a sole purpose. The alliance is neither deliberate nor planned, but results from the powerful human instinct to protect the community.

While traditional mob psychology focuses on how crowds become instantly disorderly and chaotic, mass formation theory demonstrates how crowds become instantly orderly and unified. The word "formation" is used to invoke the image of a flight formation of fighter jets: the jets move in perfect "formation" with each other, as if they are one.

Mass formations can be either positive or negative.

POSITIVE EXAMPLES -- A mob can spontaneously unite during a momentary crisis (fire, earthquake, etc) becoming a powerful force for combatting the crisis, and/or saving those imperiled by the crisis. Examples include a bucket brigade fighting a fire, or a human chain of people attempting to rescue someone who fell through thin ice.

NEGATIVE EXAMPLES -- A mob can join into a silent, angry wall of (temporarily) wordless and (temporarily) motionless hostility against a solitary individual. This community-wide anger can culminate with an entire village acting in a blind fury to punish, banish, or execute the offender.

Some Hollywood films included scenes with mass formations.

POSITIVE SCENES: "It's a Wonderful life," "The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming,"

NEGATIVE SCENES: "Home Alone," "Angels and Demons," "Game of Thrones."
Queen Cersei's famous Walk of Shame in "Game of Thrones" was met with a mass formation of the citizens of King's Landing who jeered and threw garbage at her.

Reaction Formation. 

A psychoanalytic term first described by Sigmund Freud. A defense mechanism employed to avoid true emotions. Reaction Formation occurs when person displays the opposite emotions of what he/she is really feeling. The avoidance of pain through psychological defense mechanisms. Can be done subconsciously.
When your girlfriend says, "I can't wait to move back to California." She really means, "I'm going to be completely heartbroken when I leave on December 22nd." By displaying the opposite emotion, she is utilizing reaction formation.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
