https://youtu.be/4LEQl3Mu7jU A bit of a rant this week, inspired by the many, many posts I've seen on NLP forums from rookie NLP practitioners who ask what technique they should be using with a particular client problem. They're going about it all wrong, and their NLP trainers should have showed them the right way! Here's how to approach any client problem so you'll know what to do... (for SEO purposes I should probably mention that it's to do with strategy elicitation) You can find a ...

November 20, 2017 11:57 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MB

This week we have the second half of an interview that we did about how to apply the principles or ‘presuppositions’ of NLP to improve your life and work. In the first half we explored the principle that “The map is not the territory”. In this interview we look at another principle that flows naturally from that one: “Respect for the other person’s map of the world”. Among other things, we talk about: Why you can't change someone's mind unless you start from where they are now The impo...

November 07, 2017 18:54 - 31 minutes - 28.6 MB

My interviewer is Deb Johnstone, an NLP coach based in Cairns City, Australia. Deb specialises in helping women business owners to achieve more with less stress, and to this end she put together th...

September 13, 2016 10:31 - 46 minutes - 42.5 MB

This episode marks a new direction for the Practical NLP Podcast!

From now on, I'll be interviewing various stars of the NLP field - people I rate and admire. The episodes will be quite a bit longer - rather than the 10 minutes or so of ...

The SCORE Model: Practical NLP Podcast 78

August 11, 2016 07:01 - 9.2 MB

This episode introduces the model and gives some sample questions and tips on how to use it successfully when coaching individuals. In this week's podcast: How Robert Dilts and Todd Epstein developed the SCORE model Why it's better than the 'Present State to Desired...
