The ‘Best of NLP’ Coaching Skills Master Class for Professional Coaches

A highly participative, unique and inspirational 2-day practical soft skills-transfer master class workshop with a clear and sharp focus on results, performance, learning and effective change for non-NLP coaches

Introduction
This fresh, innovative and practical fast-track programme is designed for professional coaches at all levels working in firms and consultancies who have not had any, or very little, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) training yet are curious and interested in the many benefits of NLP in coaching. Over the past 10+ years working with a wide variety of seasoned business executives we have painstakingly discovered what NLP techniques really work well in a corporate coaching context, and just as importantly what doesn’t. And designed and innovated many new ones specifically developed to facilitate coachee performance improvements in: human communications, team-development, motivation, change management, professional relationships, leadership skills and personal productivity.

Who Would Benefit From This Workshop
This 2-day in-company fast-track master class programme is designed to give participants new and empowering tools to add to their existing toolbox that will greatly enhance the quality, impact and effectiveness of their coaching:

1. Corporations
• Internal coaches – providing coaching services inside large organisations + training line managers as coaches (and mentors)/creating more of a coaching culture
2. Service Providers
• Coaching service providers – Director, VP, corporate, executive, c-level, business, leadership, life, talent, and other coaches in "non-NLP" coaching practices
• Mainstream HR consultancies – General HR, OD, change management, psychometrics and business psychology consultancies - who also offer coaching
• Recruitment and search consultancies - who also offer coaching
• Career and outplacement consultancies - who also offer coaching
• Professional coaching associations, academia and coaching training companies

What You Will Learn
This tightly focused and intensive learning and development event is designed for professional "Non-NLP" coaches interested in acquiring the best and most advanced field-tested NLP tools, techniques and "patterns" that deliver faster results, better performance, more generative learning and sustained behaviour change. It will also appeal to those coaches keen to enhance their professional effectiveness, improve their competitive advantage as well as deliver even better value for their individual coachees and client organisations.

• How to be an even more effective communicator – Increased awareness, effectiveness and change when communicating with yourself and when influencing others involves all the senses – what you see in your "minds-eye", hear in your "minds-ear", and feel within yourself emotionally
• How to get on with people faster and deeper – The way you say certain words and phrases and the manner in which you use your posture, gestures and breathing directly influences the speed and strength of the bonds you build with others
• How to use more empowering language – Some words have a far more profound impact on results, change and moods than others – learn which ones!
• How to set, focus and measure success against challenging goals – Delivering against co-created goals, objectives or CSFs means developing and maintaining clarity as well as harnessing the resources needed to get the results everyone wants
• How to effortlessly determine what motivates someone - Values are the unconscious blueprint for success (and failure!) that drives commitment and persistence, determines whether someone does/does not do something, how they spend their time, how they react when their highest values are challenged or violated
• How to expand thinking for better results – everyone has mental filters that determine what they notice and pay attention to – having greater awareness, sensitivity and flexibility will significantly improve the quality of communications and relationships
• How to integrate and align with existing skill-set – in order to get the best out the NLP skills you will have learned and ensure they do not remain in a ‘mental compartment’ on their own but will be aligned with your existing capabilities, skills and knowledge to deliver better results, performance and change.
  
  ALL the skills you will learn have been applied, developed and finely honed over the past decade in thousands of hours of one-on-one intensive coaching interventions with many hundreds of top executives, senior managers and professionals working primarily in global, sophisticated, complex and competitive business environments. You will also learn how to recognise the difference between NLP that is over-hyped and oversold (snake oil!) from serious and competent practitioners with high-quality and high-levels of training, broad knowledge, deep skills and extensive practical field-tested expertise.

For Coaches With NLP Training
As an afterthought it occurred to us that even for those coaches with some NLP training could be interested in attending? Since it would be much more than a refresher enabling you to benefit from the extensive practical experience of trainers who have attended dozens of the very best and highest-level NLP trainings, workshops and seminars they could find in the world (mostly in the USA), read (and I mean read!) many hundreds of NLP (and other self-development, leadership, EQ, etc.) books and importantly spent more than 10 years making a measurable difference using successful tried and tested NLP interventions that really work when coaching executives in business.

A Note About "Traditional NLP" vs The "Best of NLP" Coaching Skills Master Class for Professional Coaches
Because the roots of NLP were modelled on the ‘structure of excellence’ of three ‘therapeutic wizards’ and much subsequent development followed these traditions. Unsurprisingly most NLP trainings teach these psychotherapy patterns. In our experience although truly amazing (past-directed) ‘change tools’ many have virtually none, or at best very little, application in (future-directed) corporate coaching. However there are many NLP fundamentals, techniques, patterns and skills that can be adapted and are extraordinarily valuable in coaching – that’s what we teach in this programme. This will save you a lot of time, money and frustration by only learning what really matters to coaches working with leaders, directors, managers and professionals at any level in a business context.
Whilst high-quality applied NLP is dominant in our human capital development, learning and transformational work in practice we frequently draw on an eclectic confluence of global best practice models. Furthermore our advanced work has involved pioneering, innovating, developing and field-testing many new, original and unpublished, yet powerful and ‘time efficient’ personal development ‘behavioural competencies’ patterns and protocols directly applicable to business like: gravitas and stature, effective delegation, boosting motivation, dynamic priority setting, incisive decision-making, strategic ‘big picture’ visioning, leadership values, harnessing creativity, power and politics, calm resourcefulness, confident presenting, emotional flexibility and resilience, managing conflict, and many more.
