NLP for Trainers

NLP for Trainers

This is not a practitioner course…it is a program designed to provide the best of NLP specifically for trainers, presenters and facilitators. It is an intensive 7-day program and not for the feint hearted. The next program will be in Melbourne on 2-8 January, 2012 *. - 1 PLACE LEFT

We believe that NLP is what gives great trainers the edge by creating:

Great communicators who:

Know their outcomes
Recognise and respond to feedback
Have behavioural flexibility

Great thinkers who:

Use their whole brain for thinking
Can shift “perceptual positions” (self, other and context points of view)
Work with the ‘unconscious mind’ as well as the ‘conscious mind’
Project the consequences of their behaviour into the future

Self aware practitioners who:

Set a self chosen direction in their lives
Know their strengths and weaknesses and play to either or both by choice
Have tools for changing or enhancing behaviour and capabilities
Evaluate and update beliefs and enrich their sense of identity

Great learners who:

Have the ability to accept difference in others models of the world
Are capable communicators and thinkers

This 7 day intensive program will provide you with the opportunity to learn and practise the skills and techniques of a practitioner of NLP.

What is NLP?

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) studies the way people take in information from the world, how they describe it to themselves with their senses, filter it with their beliefs and values and act on the result.

NLP is a methodology for replicating the talents of highly capable individuals from many fields of endeavour. Dr John Grinder, a linguistics professor and Dr Richard Bandler, a computer scientist, conducted the original research, which led to the development of NLP. They were joined by their wives Judith DeLozier, an anthropologist, and Leslie Cameron-Bandler, a social worker.

NLP has been applied in a number of areas of the business world. These include business communications, negotiation skills, meeting management, presentation/speaking techniques and training.

Agility –v- Resilience

I have just come back from a large summit up in Ho Chi Minh city where the word “resilience” was used a lot.

It reminded me that this is a word I hear about a lot in organisations, and amongst trainers.

When I hear the word “resilient” I immediately think of a toy I had when I was a kid. It was one of those blow up clowns, weighted on the bottom, so that when you knocked it over, it would bounce straight back to it’s original position. To me, that’s what resilience is, bouncing back.

When it comes to being a trainer, you need a certain level of resilience, sure. However I think the real trick is agility.

For me, agility is about bouncing back to a different position, to avoid being knocked down again. It would be the blow up clown with a bit of AI artificial intelligence that when it bounces back, it is to a different position every time. It learns where the “blows” are coming from and responds accordingly.

To do this, trainers need to have lots of tools and techniques so that they can move and work and find the mark with their participants.

The Law of Requisite Variety is sometimes known as Ashby's Law after William Ashby is:

"the variety in the control system must be equal to or larger than the variety of the perturbations in order to achieve control"

This simply means that a flexible system with many options is better able to cope with change.

Being an “agile trainer” requires consideration of the following:

1. If you are stuck, try something…ANYTHING! … and pay attention to the feedback you are getting.
2. If that doesn’t work, try something else….and pay attention to the feedback you are getting.
3. There’s no such thing as failure, only feedback
