Business:

Peak Interpersonal Performance

Everything we say and do is a matter of choice. Most successful communicators understand they have a choice and making the choice that is most effective will result in better overall communications.

Awareness, communication and performance all starts internally. The more aware we are, the more tuned in we are and the more effective we are at communicating. Highly effective communicators have more opportunity to create positive experiences and improve their performance and impact the performance of their teams.

This two day course is designed for everyone wanting to improve their performance in a variety of contexts: at work, with teams, in sales and customer relations, in education, within the community and in their personal lives.

Powerful for leadership, interpersonal relationships, management and sales:

• How to build rapport with anyone at anytime
• How to become an excellent listener and hear what's really being said
• Gain awareness of your verbal and non-verbal communication and that of others
• Psychological profile for understanding your preferred interpersonal style of learning and communicating
• Master the art of filtering, giving and receiving feedback to make a positive difference
• Tools for managing and surpassing difficult situations, negotiations and conflict resolution
• Learn techniques for increasing insight and a deeper understanding of others

Corporate courses can be modified to suit clients' specific needs.

Introduction to New Code NLP

May 1, 2010   930a-4p

An introduction into the New Code of NLP created and developed by John Grinder, co-creator of NLP and Carmen Bostic St Clair. New Code NLP is a set of patterns that create change in behaviours and experiences quickly and effectively.  After learning and applying the skills in New Code NLP you enter into situations and find change has occurred without any conscious preparation the change just occurs, naturally.

At this starter course you will learn how New Code NLP began as a pattern for individuals to activate change and to use NLP autonomously.    In an experiential learning environment you will use techniques that will help you shift your state away from states of fear, conflict, anxiety ... or any behaviour that is a constant challenge ... into states of being happier, relaxed, confident, focused and more.  

Client Excellence:

NEW!!  Metaphors, Stories & Spinnakers at Sea

Summer 2010 10a-2p

Like many other forms of art, storytelling is a highly creative process of putting down on paper what emotions, feelings and thoughts you want to communicate to others.  A story rich with sensory based language and told with grace and passion can immediately engage an audience on a deeply unconscious level.   The unconscious minds of the listeners will easily sort the pieces of your well crafted story and make connections with those parts of the story that address the challenge or situation they find themselves engrossed in.

In this course learn how to compose compelling stories and learn how to deliver these stories effectively.  Pre-work assignments will be given. 

Class size limited to 10 people– early registration will secure your spot!

Cost:  Early Bird $49 +gst by June 1st  Freedom option $65 +gst
