– Explain every thing you know about it to your colleague.

– OR Debrief your colleagues after a meeting you had that they were not a part of.

– OR Handover to your reportee / your colleague / the-new-guy-on-the-job.  As in, once you have resigned.

De-grow

– Shrink! (Not to be confused with growing at a decelerating pace)

RnR

– Orginally meant to convey ‘Rewards & Recognition’; Now signifying any award function/ceremony! 

Isn’t it funny how the same words mean totally different things in a different context…
