professexual 

Someone who has a serious tendency to be attracted to authority figures, particularly people in positions of major power like professors, government officials, people who are called professionals everyday. They start off liking them because of the power those people seem to have and gradually it becomes more about the person and less about the power.

Professual 

A cross between professional and casual. Can be used in the context of fashion, meetings, events and dialogue.
Fashion Women - A skort and some type of blouse is a professual outfit

Fashion Men - Jeans and a Blazer

Meetings - when meeting your colleagues for dinner after work, you need to maintain a level of 'professualism'. You cannot be too casual because you have to work with them, but you don't have to be professional about everything.

Dialogue - when talking to authority or colleagues about a social event that work is hosting, a phrase such as "What are you gonna wear?" is preferable to "What are you going to wear?" In the context of email between colleagues; signing off with "Take it Easy" v.s. "Best regards" or "Later man" v.s. "Sincerely" can be considered 'Professual'

Events - Professual Friday instead of Casual Friday, because no one actually knows what is acceptable on casual Friday's but when it is 'Professual Friday', the individual knows that there has to be an element of professionalism in your outfit.

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."
