I too am part of the MBA crowd and I can tell you that, as many Thinker Toys as they show you in class, far more will be encountered in the real world. Management just loves to popularize idiotic but clever-sounding sound bites. It makes them feel like they are doing their jobs. "irregardless" is a good one, but unfortunately my pet peeve buzzword is actually a word. "Problematic."

Aw well. If management were a little less clueless than they are, then they wouldn't need me. My employer and I make a nice living promoting concepts that everyone should already know. For example, we get the parties in a dispute to talk with each other. I know, I know. It's a strange concept, but (surprize surprize) it works.
