Aswan syndrome

The belief that saying something makes it so, no matter what reality is. Common among middle managers.

The term comes from the Aswan Dam, a powerful source of electricity, all powered by De Nile (denial).

"Why don't we have enough people for this job?"

"Management have Aswan Syndrome."
