'Logistics'
OK so it was a bit trendy 20 years ago but now every ****** lorry has Logistics emblazoned on its sides.
 
Engage(d)

Overused and meaningless. At one point it meant you were either getting married or else you were locked in the loo.

Now everyone engages with everyone else. You don't have a conversation or meeting now - you engage with a person(s).

'touch-base' is my absolute pet hate. If any word or phrase should be included in the Dictionary of Pretentious Corporate Wank-Speak, that's gotta be the one.
