“I cleared bandwidth to lead a higher impact project”

No, don’t say that! Say “I hurkledurked the dooper bobble.” It means exactly the same thing (nothing,) but using the business jargon of the 2030s so you stay ahead of the trend.

They have a point though. They are telling you to phrase things in a way that makes you look better.

How else are you going to become an executive and have all the ~~slaves~~ employees do whatever you want?

Because generally you're justifying your promotion to an MBA anymore. The days of being promoted purely on merit because your boss understands the work you do are LONG gone.
