The Inverse Conway Maneuver

Or as Chaiyya would say "More BS That Comes Out Of IT".  If she could speak, which she can't.

This is the latest bit of jargon that is flavour of the month in IT circles here.  We'll skip lightly past the fact that it's the American spelling of "manoeuvre" (and is therefore wrong) and ask the questions: 
Who knew there was a Conway manoeuvre?  
Who knows what a Conway manoeuvre is?
Is it even important?
And WTAF is an inverse Conway manoeuvre?

Because I'm hugely inquisitive I did a bit of research.  

There was never a Conway manoeuvre - there is, however, a Conway's Law (which is more of an observation than a law).  It runs "Any organization that designs a system (defined broadly) will produce a design whose structure is a copy of the organization's communication structure".  

It might have been earth shattering news in 1967 (when it was coined) but only if your earth was made of incredibly thin porcelain.

And now we have the Manoeuvre and we have the Inverse Version which is obviously SOOOOO much better and really isn't Buzzword Bingo Gone Bad.

I think I've had enough of BS for this week.  We could play the game and just invent spurious terms that we attempt to drop into meetings hoping no-one wants to be embarassed by asking "what actually does that mean?"

The Handyman Corollary - "This is too complicated, let's ignore that and set stupidly unrealistic deadlines and make sure no support is available".

I'm sure you have better ideas.
