Sorry, I'm not doing your job. That strategic plan is like the field of a cow owner, and I'd rather not walk through it again, much less clean up the piles.
There are examples in the thread that JMO linked, the one she started in the wrong forum. Start there.

I mean, who is the target audience? I hope it isn't actuaries. We can usually smell right through this, that sometimes being our job. Maybe the intended audience is idiots who like this kind of vapid language?
