BUSINESS JARGON: BANDWIDTH: meaning and examples

Welcome back everyone and happy Tuesday to you.

This week's theme is Business Jargon. We had a somewhat cliche phrase for yesterday's lesson; and today's word is also a little overused (but important to know).

It's the word: BANDWIDTH

Definition: The energy or mental capacity to complete a task or project. (This originally comes from the word bandwidth, related to the internet.)

Example 1: I would love to start this new project, but we don't have the bandwidth right now.

Example 2: Do you have the bandwidth to take on a new client?

This word originally comes from its use related to the internet. In this case, it refers to the amount of data that can be sent over a network in a certain amount of time. 

That's all for today. I hope you had the bandwidth to read today's lesson!

I'll see you tomorrow with a new lesson.
