Introduction to Neuro-Linguistic Programming: Communication skills that will change your mind!
Thursday November 13th and Friday November 14th from 8am to 5pm each day.
Ever wonder what people like Tony Robbins, Oprah Winfrey, Steve Jobs, Barack Obama, and Steven Spielberg say when they are asked what helped make them excellent at what they do? For them, and many more, the answer is Neuro-Linguistic Programming or NLP.
NLP is a common-sense perspective on human change based in how our nervous system works. Built on the amazing abilities of Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls, and Virginia Satir, NLP is a skill set that will make you better at what you do, and better at helping others achieve the change that want and need. If you are a mental health clinician, NLP will improve your ability to:
Establish rapport and impact the behavior of others.
See your client’s non-verbal communication by improving your sensory acuity.
Utilize a person’s neurophysiology, mood and unconscious needs to help them change.
Communicate in a way that changes the nervous system and behavior.
Integrate all this into your personal approach, and skill set.
Whether you’re a mental health clinician, a hypnotist, or a personal coach NLP will make you more effective at what you already do. If you’re ready to dramatically improve your clinical, supervisory, and management skills, it’s time you had the same training that executives at Coca-Cola, Chase Manhattan, American Express, IBM, and multiple government agencies have had!!
