There was a TV show in 80s in the UK called Howard's Way about a small boat building business. It was very popular in Thatcherite Britain. The "dialogue" was pretty much this. Total business-speak mumbo jumbo. This is a brilliant take off.

It’s a parody of Howard’s Way, which was people in the boating industry in the south of England acting as though they were in the oil industry in America (the hit US show ‘Dallas’). It’s mocking the self-importance and excessive dramatic license that shows like Howard’s Way took in having people in the middle of England acting like they are working in big business somewhere in the US as though they are at the throbbing heart of global capitalism, when in actual fact they are running a health club in Uttoxeter. Hugh Laurie’s transatlantic accent in the sketch is a nod to it as is ‘I drove through High Wycombe the other day’ which shows the inherent absurdity of them behaving like this when they are in the arse end of England.
