You must call all of the employees together (especially those on important projects) and everyone who cannot physically attend must dial in by telephone or video link and then the "Director" will have "Synergy" with all the employees.

All will reach a Zen like state and come out of the meeting totally "Synergized"

Synergy /SIN-ehr-gee/ n. – A state where resources are pooled and leveraged across the enterprise based on an algorithm where the cross-departmental team leader determines the magnitude of other groups' contributions and the timeline for his group to expend the resources.

It means "Find a way to work together to fix this even though your skill sets are incomplete, your groups are incompatible, and we will not give you the proper resources you need so I don't look bad."

My employer definitely needs a synergizer bunny!
