Do you mean corporatese (corpspeak) and CEOspeak? You naturally learn to speak and write it publicly, not to upset cynical people. It comes without rehearsing with enough experience and is difficult to emulate.

You need to know the conversational minefield very well.

I mean anything. Take my post here as a good example. I'm positive it could be more eloquently stated. Probably more correctly stated. I'm getting a lot of enjoyment from the discourse, though. In ways I don't think I would get from well polished writings.
