Hi All,

I have been attending interview of late and keep coming up against a problem re the understanding of NLP.

The last one I went too was opened up with "Well I have read your CV and see you know about NLP I do too it was mentioned the other day when we spoke about designing the quiet area".

It seems that teachers in particular believe that NLP is mearly an acceptance the people learn in a visual, auditory or kinesthetic manner. [sm=banghead.gif]

The point I want to get across is that NLP is much much more.

Can anyone advise me of any fab statements or literature I can use to construct a good overview as to how it is a much deeper and useful tool.

THANKS

Love & Light

RE: Employers have a limiting belief about NLP

Do a demo for them. Anchor positive feelings spacially and slide them up and down to show them how easily you can do what you do, rather than just how they think you code your learning in VAK.

RE: Employers have a limiting belief about NLP

Hi there, I think the best way of explaining NLP is to say that the founders discovered the best people in a particular field and then "modelled" their behaviour in order that they can achieve similar success.

That way you can explain that you can model the behaviour of a top performing sales person for example and then teach others to achieve it.

NLP is modelling and in my belief is not anything at all in itself. In fact the term NLP is a nominalisation in that you can't put it is a wheelbarrow. (NLP Practitioners will recognise this from the meta model).

I look forward to comments.

Ian
