"Take it offline," "Let's get the ball rolling," "Ping me," and of course, "synergy." These are just some of the worst clichés that have come out of corporate America. It's a known fact that prolonged exposure to these office sayings can lead to increased eye-rolling, annoyance and strain of the facial muscles from too much fake smiling when hearing these from your manager. To combat this, we've created this corporate clichés adult coloring book as much needed stress therapy; a fun, passive-aggressive way to take out your angst against these ridiculous office sayings that have taken over your meetings, memos and emails from your company's higher ups. We've taken 19 of the most annoying corporate clichés and translated them into hilarious, literal translations that you can color and poke fun at. Most are even workplace friendly so you can hang them on your wall without your manager giving you the stink eye (well, depending on where you work ... hmmm time for the disclaimer: we make no promises on whether you'll get the stink eye if you pin pages of this book to your office / cubicle wall, so you assume the risk on that!).
***Benefits***
5.5" x 8.5" (13.97 x 21.59 cm) similar to A5 padfolio size; perfect for purses, briefcases, backpacks.
-The perfect birthday, stocking stuffer, white elephant, secret Santa, gift for a co-worker, friend or loved one who has to suffer thru these clichés on a daily basis.
-Studies have shown that adult coloring books are perfect stress therapy. We even consulted with a few therapists who confirmed this. And let's face it, hearing corporate clichés over and over is not fun! But what is fun is poking fun at them in a passive-aggressive way that can relieve stress!
-Unlike most coloring books, each illustration is a carefully crafted theme, tied to a specific cliché and not simply random patterns.
-Coloring book images are only on one side of the page (we didn't double dip!).
-But not to waste the space, we put some fun stuff on the reverse side of each page: a corporate-speak definition, fun trivia and a hashtag on so you can post pictures of your artwork on social media.
-We even included a fun all-occasion gift checklist inside the cover so you don't have to buy a separate gift card. You can be cheap and environmentally friendly at the same time!

About the Author
Today, John hosts the 'Moving Forward' podcast (www.bemovingforward.com) which has reached listeners in over 50 countries. Through Moving Forward, John has spoken with some of today's most inspiring entrepreneurs, artists and leaders. The goal of the show is to inspire listeners to find their career and/or entrepreneurial passions; letting them know that it is possible to do and achieve more.
John teamed up with two creative, talented friends: Jenn L., a UX designer and strategist who doubles as an illustrator (Jenn was the mastermind behind the artwork), and Brian B., a former MBA classmate of John's and a finance whiz (who hears corporate clichés daily), to create the 'Corporate Clichés' adult coloring book. The idea came one night when the three of them were discussing the corporate clichés that annoyed them the most. A sideways conversation about adult coloring books led to the idea to create this coloring book as a way of providing much needed humor and stress relief for those working in corporate America (which Jenn and Brian still are, hence the reason why they chose to be semi-anonymous in their co-authorship!).
