I'm listening to my company's first quarter 2020 kick off meeting, and heard something new. Apparently the purpose of the meeting is to get "all of the wood behind the arrow".
The background seems an oft-used phrase in Sun Microsystems by the former CEO, "all the wood behind a single arrow" which means focus on a single product and be the best in it. If I had only one bullet or an arrow left to shoot, I better get it right, aim, and shoot the bull's eye!

We were told in a meeting today that we were 'going to put the discussion in the parking lot' I was sort of concerned as the only time I have been asked to 'take it to the parking lot' it ended in fisticuffs.
I guess it is the new 'we are going to table this discussion' since there wasn't a parking lot brawl after the meeting.
