Course content

• A brief explanation of what NLP is and how it works

NLP utilises participants' beliefs, values and decisions, and so a fundamental part of the workshop will be discussing these things with participants. NLP techniques include things such as brief, guided visualisations, the use of storytelling (metaphor) and a range of other techniques.
