EOD, COB, COP, TBD\u2014these are just a few of the acronyms that you will need to be familiar with as you venture into the world of business. And if you happen to be a little confused at first or mix them up, don’t panic. It happens to all of us at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, I remember the first time I received an email with the closing remark, “Report to be submitted by EOD Tuesday…”, and I wondered what my supervisor needed an explosive for (EOD is also a military term for Explosive Ordinance Disposal). Thank goodness I looked the meaning up before ordering some C4 on Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acronyms are an efficient way for business professionals to communicate with one another. When a supervisor assigns a task, they may detail whether it’s due at the end of the day (EOD) or close of business (COB). It’s important to know the meanings of these acronyms to avoid missing any important deadlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, for the safety of your supervisor, team and organization as a whole, I will show you what EOD means in business. I will also show you how to use it to communicate effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
