And the Soliloquy from Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire
“Help me, Help you”

Instead, the total focus lies with the speaker
and what he says
![Page 13: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Before going further, let’s talk about that thing in the room

They feel naked without their slides
![Page 16: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Yet, nothing wins over an audience
like an individualalone on stage,

![Page 17: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

![Page 18: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In a corporate setting, Tyrion would fire up the PowerPoint
deck and start talking

In Game of Thrones, it’s just him (Jorah has taken on the characteristics of wallpaper)
![Page 20: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Our Boy

![Page 21: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
He’s a dwarf with an uncanny knack for figuring things out and living to see another day
![Page 22: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Shooting an through his dad’s chest put a damper on his career
in the House of LannisterNot his finest moment in problem solving
![Page 23: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
He’s now trying to reinvent himself as a counselor
to the one ruler on a roll, Daenerys

You’re up to date

In this scene, Tyrion has hit the proverbial fork in the road
![Page 26: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Tyrion’s stature doesn’t portend a happy ending if he ends up in the fighting pits

But Tyrion’s persuasive communications wins the day
![Page 28: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The scene serves as a reminder
of the Power of Language without “Decorations”
![Page 29: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

This same communications would have looked something
like the following in PowerPoint form

It’s not bad
![Page 48: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
The slides reflect fun
with

Nice touch with the visual storytelling, particularly explaining
the bad guy problem
![Page 50: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Levity even appears in the slides
![Page 51: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Would the slide presentation have also earned Tyrion a place at Daenerys’ side as
advisor?
![Page 52: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Probably not
![Page 53: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
No question that the more persuasive of the two techniques comes from Tyrion standing alone …
![Page 54: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Solely dependent on choice of words
and delivery of those words
![Page 55: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
This isn’t to say business professionals
should immediately stop using PowerPoint
![Page 56: Lessons in Persuasive Language from The Game of Thrones](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58f9a768760da3da068b5988/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
The withdrawal symptoms from no PowerPoint would lower the
country’s GDP(Gross Domestic Product)

But there are times you might consider
going it alone
