Definition of flopportunity
flopportunity
noun
- A situation in any environment with a policy of a positive outlook that trumps reasonable negative reactions, in which egregious or borderline egregious efforts and outcomes are spun as valuable learning experiences. This term mocks the absurdity of overly cautious corporate policies that necessitate positive framing of obviously poor performance or behavior, often resulting in a feedback loop where such behavior continues without real consequence.
Example of positive spin: "This is a great opportunity to help Joe learn about proper attire for the office," said the manager when Joe showed up to work completely naked.
Usage: "Marcia's manager had to treat her missed deadline as a flopportunity to teach her about time management, despite the clear stupidity of her actions."
