From Wikipedia

Chutzpah (; Yiddish: חוצפּה, romanized: khutspe) is the quality of audacity, for good or for bad. The word derives from the Hebrew ḥuṣpā (חֻצְפָּה), meaning "insolence", "cheek" or "audacity". Thus, the original Yiddish word has a strongly negative connotation, but the form which entered English as a Yiddishism in American English has taken on a broader meaning, having been popularized through vernacular use in film, literature, and television. In American English the word is sometimes interpreted—particularly in business parlance—as meaning the amount of courage, mettle or ardor that an individual has.
