GENNY GETS A LESSON IN POWER


Genny Lloyd watched open-mouthed as Glenn Holloway came
barreling through the room almost at a run, his face beet-
red, his expensive jacket slung over his shoulder like an
old sweatshirt, and clearly so furious he didn't even know
the others were there. When he disappeared into his corner
office with a thunderous slam of the door, Genny looked
around and asked wonderingly, "What on earth was THAT all
about?"

"That," said the man next to her, "was about the fact that
Oscar has once again wiped the floor with him in a meeting.
He can't stand it - he always acts like that afterward.
You'll get used to it."

Genny was puzzled. "Hasn't Glenn been here longer than Oscar
Bruce?" Sure, and that's why it makes Glenn so mad when
Oscar pulls off one of these coups. Our fearless leader will
spend weeks getting a presentation ready, making sure it's
perfect. And then he has to sit there while Oscar just
"wings it" effortlessly. Then when the time comes to vote,
the votes go to Oscar. You can always tell when he's come
out of one of those."

Genny was baffled. She hadn't been here long, but she'd had
time to learn that Glenn was a capable man who knows the
business inside and out. How could Oscar Bruce give him so
much trouble, she wondered?

Gives Advice to Genny’s questions

LANGUAGE is your only source of real power. You have a
language, of course. You may have more than one. It's almost
a sure bet you have not been using that language with the
kind of expert skill of which you are fully capable.

You’ve probably been let to believe that people who use
language with great skill are either "born with a silver
tongue in their mouths" or have acquired their skill over
the course of many years of intensive training.
