Why is it that words are so often misunderstood? Recent research shows that 50% of all email is not decoded by our brains to mean the same as the author intended. It’s only letters and white space, so why do people say “there it is in black and white” to explain something that cannot be misread when these marks are ambiguous at least half of the time!?

The answer is simple.

Using NLP In The Education Of Doctors and Dentists

By Tony Finnigan.

Tony is one of the Speakers at the NLP @ Work conference at the National Marine Aquarium in Plymouth on 30th March.

He is a medical practitioner based in Tavistock ,Devon and an educationalist at Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry in Plymouth. He is also a practising psychotherapist in Transactional Analysis analysis and a Master Practitioner in NLP

 

 

As an educationalist involved in training general practitioners and medical students for the past 25 years  in conjunction with another master NLP practitioner we have now evolved a model  integrating memory theory, learning theory and NLP that  is producing stunning results in student performance.

We have literally transformed the performance of failing students. Our present figures suggest a 95% success rate  My presentation at the NLP @ Work conference will outline the core basics of this process. You will in a very short period of time be able to deliver significant performance change in an educational environment. The principles described work at school undergraduate, postgraduate, and in any business environment.

It may sound like magic- it isn’t, just allowing your brain to work for you

So What Is NLP Anyway And How Can It Help Me At Work?

 

 

By Martin Crump.

Martin is a Director and co-founder of Evolution.  He is a certified NLP Master Trainer with a wealth of experience of working with organisations of all sizes and types across the UK.

 

 

 

 

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) has been around for some time now.

In the past, the tools and techniques of NLP have proved to be extremely effective as therapeutic tools, enabling a large number of people world wide to resolve personal issues and limitations and give them the ability to grow and realise their potential.

Until recently, NLP training was designed and delivered on a therapeutic base and has been successful in training Practitioners who often go on to become therapists.

At Evolution we recognise the huge potential for NLP tools and techniques in the business field and have worked extensively to adapt traditional NLP training into this area, culminating in business focused courses which are accredited by the NCFE.

 

What is NLP?

 

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is the Art and Science of Personal Excellence.

Art, because the way we each think and act is unique to us, and any description of feelings, attitudes and beliefs is bound to be highly subjective and personal.

Science, because it incorporates well researched methods that can be used to identify the patterns of successful behaviour and develop those patterns in yourself.

NLP, The Outdoors and Personal Development

 

By Nik Green

Nik is a member of the  Evolution Team, has worked extensively with adventure training in a schools environment and is an NLP Master Practitioner and certified NLP coach.

 

 

 

Having returned to working in the outdoor education environment after a prolonged sabbatical in the corporate world  I was keen to see how NLP tools and techniques could be applied whilst working with individuals and groups in the great outdoors.

The following questions immediately sprung to mind; “Do the techniques work as well with children?” ; “Can anchoring be used to subdue fear and enable participation in activities?” ; “Can the outdoor environment be used as a medium for personal change?”

How To Avoid Insomnia

 

By Martin Crump.

Martin is a Director and co-founder of Evolution.  He is a certified NLP Master Trainer with a wealth of experience of working with organisations of all sizes and types across the UK.

 

 

Sleep

Sleep is as important to us as food, water and air.  Although the purpose of sleep is not yet fully understood, the health effects of lack of it seem to suggest that it is important in enabling the body to rest and repair itself.

Different people need differing amounts of sleep to stay healthy and so there are no hard and fast rules about the amount of sleep you need although most adults seem to need 7-8 hours per night.

Are You:

  • Tired during the day?
  • Tired and un-refreshed when you wake up?
  • Waking early and finding it impossible to get back to sleep?
  • Better able to sleep away from home?
  • Suffering from frequent headaches during the day?
  • Irritable and unable to concentrate?
  • Taking longer than 30mins to fall asleep?
  • Waking often in the night?
  • Only able to get to sleep with the help of sleeping tablets or alcohol?

Then you are probably suffering from insomnia.

Do You Admire Someone? How To Become As Good As Them At What They Do

By Martin Crump.

Martin is a Director and co-founder of Evolution.  He is a certified NLP Master Trainer with a wealth of experience of working with organisations of all sizes and types across the UK.

Modelling, The Concept:

Most of our early learning comes from modelling other people.  We learn to walk, talk, play games and socialise by watching and copying our parents, family and friends.

As we grow older we copy friends and role models and modify our behaviour, language and dress as we strive to develop our personalities.

We continue to model people we admire and value as successful in their field, whether that is in a social environment, at work or at play.

At work, we are often trained by a ‘sitting next to Nellie’ approach with the hopes that by working with someone we will pick up the processes and skills needed.  This is fine as long as ‘Nellie’ is good at the job, otherwise bad practices may be passed on and replicated throughout the organisation.

Many organisations now use Mentoring as a way to develop staff by placing them with a more senior or experienced employee. The success of this approach depends on the ability of the Mentor to pass on skills and knowledge.  Often they don’t know what skills are important – most of us just do what we do and don’t think about how we get the results we get.

If the person being Mentored has NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Modelling skills, however, they can elicit the skills they need from the Mentor. Read More

No More Gantt Charts?

By Matthew Theobald.   Matthew is a professional Project Manager who has been working on large scale projects across Europe:

 

 

“I had spent some time been looking for ways to simplify projects. As part of this I had developed Project Fractures, which includes a series of 9 key questions to ask any project. The answers to these reduce the risk of project failure.

I tried out some of the NLP tools and techniques I learned on the NLP Business Practitioner course with several project teams.  I was stunned by how much difference it made to the people in the room each time I used them and realised that NLP could really help in all manner of situations.

I began working with Martin Crump on Project Leadership in September 2010 and realised very quickly that it would make a real difference to the success of projects of all types and sizes.

By combining elements of NLP tools and techniques, Martin’s NLP based strategic planning tool, my Project Fractures, with Leadership theories, processes and skills a simple but effective process quickly took shape.

And this is what I will be talking about at the NLP @ Work conference – what the process is, how to apply it in your projects and how this approach means you never need to see another Gantt Chart!”

How To Develop Your Leaders And Help The Community At The Same Time

By Martin Crump.

Martin is a Director and co-founder of Evolution.  He is a certified NLP Master Trainer with a wealth of experience of working with organisations of all sizes and types across the UK.

 

 

For a business to be successful it has to sell it’s products or services for more than it costs to supply these goods or services – it’s that simple.

Simple, but not easy.  The world is changing, and that pace of change is getting faster and faster.  Changes in technology, communication processes, employees expectations, globalisation and the job market itself, mean that the way we used to manage our businesses needs to change.  We need to be much more flexible and innovative just to keep pace with our competitors.  Leading, rather than managing is the way to increase flexibility and get the best out of all our resources – including the workforce.
