Come to Jesus Meeting

Definitions

1. A blunt, serious meeting where people are expected to confront problems honestly and stop pretending things are fine. In engineering slang, it usually means the project has drifted far enough that gentle hints have failed.

   In plain English: A very direct serious meeting meant to force honesty and action.

   Example: "After the third missed release and another week of vague status updates, leadership called a come to Jesus meeting about ownership, scope, and what was actually blocking delivery."
