“I haven’t looked at the data yet, but I will… eventually.”
To return to a previous topic or discussion at a later time. Corporate purgatory where tasks go to die. A polite way of saying, "I hope you forget about this so I don’t have to do it." If someone tells you they’ll "circle back," prepare to remind them at least five more times.
"Great idea! Let’s circle back on that… preferably never."
