Shortly after starting a new job, I wrote a brief document, maybe
ten pages, outlining the project that I had been hired to run.

The CEO returned it to me saying, "I want this in Powerpoint. Until
you have distilled this down to a series of bullet points, you
obviously haven't thought the project through carefully enough and
found a way of explaining it to other people."


True story.
