Part 2 - The NLP Practitioner Programme is designed to help yourself and your clients to develop a user manual for your brain. If you want to master the art of effective communication and building rapport; either to extend you own knowledge or to use the experience within a coaching environment, then the NLP Practitioner Programme is for you.
A coach will often hear from a client that options for the way forward are very limited. People can feel stuck in position, as if no improvement is possible. It is the coach's role to get the client into a different frame of mind, and thinking laterally about what the options for progress might be. During the 'Generating Endless Possibilities' training you will consider ways of generating new possibilities with your client so that they never need feel stuck again!
The idea of breaking options down into manageable chunks is a great place to start. You will learn other ways to get the client thinking differently and more creatively about the potential ways to progress. What challenges do they face? What barriers of thought and behaviour are in the way? We all have bad habits and you will be taught a brilliant quick-fix tool with which you can break them.
And many of us have set patterns of thought and action, that don't get us where we want but which we find ourselves experiencing time and again. During this training you will learn to experience your thoughts in a totally different way. Is your client in a situation where a particular issue triggers a pattern of anger, sadness, stress or helplessness? It is possible to break out of that pattern and increase the harmony in your life.
By learning to think differently about the situation, by refusing to slip into damaging and restrictive patterns, you can overcome all kinds of challenges and blocks. This is incredibly useful when working with a client with a specific mental block that is stopping them getting to the desired goal - a writer with writer's block being a good example!

Many clients find themselves making the same mistakes over and over again. All of us can find the past difficult to shake off sometimes, and that makes it very difficult to move forwards as effectively as we could.
How useful would it be to be able to manage time, allowing you to organise memories and goals and plans in such a way that the past doesn't drag you back any more? Using techniques you will develop on this course you never need feel under-resourced to face the future again. Instead you will be able to move on with determination and confidence.
Clients can learn new ways of behaving and thinking. As a coach you can instill new ways of thinking into the client's head, so that they learn to behave differently without having to discipline themselves to do so. Defeating these obstacles can be a really powerful change in the life of the client, giving them huge new momentum for the future and a sense of freedom as they set out on their new path forward.
'NLP is a fantastic string to add to your coaching bow,' says Kris Robertson, who is responsible for mentoring The Coaching Academy's student coaches. 'It will maximise your coaching skills, ensuring you really are talking the same language as your client. NLP can be a wonderful resource in helping you to establish the client's motivation behind taking action, think of more options and develop more powerful goals.'
