I've noticed it puts people on the defensive when I put 'just' in a sentence, even though I have no intent to disparage others with my words, so I make an effort to avoid using that word at all in any business setting. I've found it goes over much better when framing suggestions as 'Maybe you could try..." than 'Just do...'.
