Practical Applications of NLP
NLP
has been around for the last 40 years and many people understand some
of the content of NLP learning and have seen it used with amazing
results. What the majority of people who are aware of NLP struggle with
is the practical application of NLP to their own life contexts. So,
we‘ve put together an informative article to assist the understanding of
how NLP can be immediately incorporated into everyday life, we answer
the question, “What can NLP do for me?”
NLP in Business
The
challenges facing large and small, public and private sector businesses
today are many and varied. The complexities of internal operation and
the pressures of an external economic environment often mask the simple
solution to business success. Excellent companies and excellent
business people share a common skill, excellent communication.
A
business that understands how to communicate with its staff and its
customers is a successful business and it’s the one thing that seems to
be neglected and that most businesses get wrong. The learning
embroidered within NLP presents a rich picture of how individuals and
organisations alike can shift their thinking to become masters of
communication and enhance their performance and therefore their success
and profitability.
NLP thinking can be employed across every area of business activity. Here are some compelling examples:
- Sales – Using NLP within the sales process makes it easy for customers to buy. No hard sell, just great customer relationships that will endure. It doesn’t matter if you sell face to face or over the telephone, the NLP sales process works.
- Staff/Management relationships. If you want to engage and receive the support and commitment of your workforce, communication is the key.
- Presentation Skills – Make presentations and pitches engaging, full of charisma and compelling for every member of the audience. More importantly, deliver them with confidence and self-belief.
- Communication – For yourself and your colleagues. Shift the culture of your business.
- Recruitment – Get the right person into the right job, every time.
- Building Teams – Build teams that share the same values with diversity of skills to offer a rich and productive group.
- Negotiating and Influencing – Communication is the key.
A
business succeeds and fails on the strength of its people. You are
your business, so it is crucial that you and your team are able to
produce optimum performance, 100% of the time. The recipe for
performing well combines a number of ingredients. Confidence,
self-belief, clarity of thought, focus, direction, vision, alignment and
congruence, energy, positivity and good health are all necessary
components in creating excellence. The new thinking within NLP
provides all of these essential ingredients. Firstly, create excellence
for yourself, then you can assist your teams to create the same
excellence, with aligned purpose and values, to generate a feast of
abundance and prosperity for all.

NLP in Sport
Extensive
scientific study across the world has satisfied sceptics that the mind –
body connection is real. It is now accepted that mental state directly
affects physical performance. We can now see clearly that a positive
mental approach substantially improves performance across all sporting
disciplines.
Imagine
being able train and compete with total confidence, having the ability
to remove all elements of self doubt and that nagging voice that
constantly whispers the doubting question “what if?” How would it feel
if you were to do that at the unconscious level, removing the need to
constantly remember the complexities of what you must and must not do to
make your performance work?
Whichever
sport you enjoy, NLP thinking can show you how to improve your sports
performance and break through your own limiting mental barriers. By
instructing you in the use of simple and effective techniques you will
discover answers to your own potential and discover your ability to
create your optimum performance.
Most
people who engage in sport form strategies for training, preparation,
competing and performance. These strategies run constantly in your head
when you are engaging in your sport. You will have different
strategies running for many different aspects of your sporting
performance. Unfortunately, unhelpful strategies soon become habitual
and can easily affect your physical and mental performance. NLP
technique will show you how to break down strategies which you know
don’t serve you well and replace them with your own ultimate performance
strategy and instruct you how to step into that strategy at precisely
the right moment.
NLP can assist you to open the door to your optimum performance.
