NOW PROUD TO BE ANLP REGIONAL AMBASSADOR FOR CUMBRIA !
In 2019 ‘Everyday NLP’ was launched a book I co-authored with my late friend and associate Eleni Sarantinou. This is now the pre-course reading for my NLP Business/ Master Practitioner ! In 2020 I was proud to be appointed ANLP’ s Regional Ambassador for Cumbria.
I am an accredited NLP Trainer having trained with Sue Knight (author NLP At Work) in France and India, Robert Dilts, Judith Delozier and Judy Lowe (NLP University) in Greece. I have also had the privilege of training in New Code NLP with John Grinder and in Generative Coaching with Robert Dilts and Stephen Gilligan.
The environment has been a key element in my learning and the courses I run. So my ‘open’ courses run the lovely Lake District….and occasionally Kefalonia and Cornwall!
What Delegates Say
I always enjoy the way Florence delivers courses, inclusive, questioning and supportive of everyone, helping each individual to draw on their own conclusions
I had fought my instinct to embark on NLP Practitioner for years………. and having completed the programme with Florence I am very sorry that I didn’t do it much earlier. Her approach is perfect – balancing theory with practice, encouraging thinking and embracing evaluation and questioning. She was the ultimate guide on a journey that has not only enriched my approach as a coach and L&D facilitator, but also gave me the chance to understand myself and others better. To say that this programme exceeded my expectations is an understatement. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
How have you used your learning since the programme ?
During the programme I found that my learning wove naturally into my thinking and unlike other approaches, which I consciously use to suit the situation, my NLP learning feels much more assimilated and intuitive. I have used specific techniques learnt, but more powerful for me has been use of the pillars of NLP, which are simple and yet the most impactful. I have found it effortless to put my learning into action and been surprised at how useful concepts come forward when I need them. Just one example was helping a client challenged in their career progression put themselves at ‘cause’, which unblocked their thinking and meant that they generated a long and new list of possibilities.
Tailored to all of our needs – Quite magically
Totally motivating and as I am now using the learning, it is proving to be highly successful. I would recommend this to others………….Improved my communications and effectiveness in meetings and this change has be noticed and commented on by others. The experience is excellent – a very easy way to learn. Like the mix of people and skills and how Florence manages to tailor the course to all of our needs – quite magically. Love the photobox surprise – that’s another anchor!
Location so serene and easy to learn in.
Safe and comfortable environment for learning
I had worked with Florence before and liked her approach. The content … allowed scope for each participant to apply the learning to themselves and to their own role and situation.
The programme was well run, a safe and comfortable environment for learning was quickly established …………. there were opportunities to learn from working with the other participants and from myself.
I have been more aware of the impact of my state of mind and thought processes on my interactions with others. I have used anchor techniques to support a positive attitude and found the reframing process helpful. I am finding some of the presuppositions useful in supporting how I think about issues and challenges. Florence created a good learning and exploration environment and adapted to the experience and needs of a varied group. Time was well used, with many opportunities for testing out the ideas and approaches.
“The course was excellent”
I would have to say the course was excellent. Florence is approachable, inspiring and patient. She is a personal role model for NLP- she reflects how adopting NLP behaviours and attitudes- can not only make you a better coach but a better person. Florence takes time to explain things in an easy to understand way providing a safe environment to practice your learning……..Immediately the learning has benefited myself and the company I work for………….I have improved my sensory acuity – having more time and patience to REALLY LISTEN and observe – giving more of my full attention to others will help me to continue to build rapport and positive relationships with colleagues.
I loved the pace, interaction, fun and venue. Could not give feedback as to how could be improved.
“Fantastic…..Inspirational”
Fantastic; from an initial position of scepticism toward the topic after being involved with other similar training/management sessions where I never got much out of it, Florence’s training style made it so worthwhile for me………..most of the skills learnt I will/have used in differing scenarios since the course. Inspirational; she made the whole course flow so naturally …………Her enthusiasm for the content made it easier to learn………….The way of learning was not like the usual courses I had been on, with the whole ambience making it easy to relax and try things that were totally out of my comfort zone.
“Transferable to all walks of life”
I would highly recommend this programme to anyone wanting to improve their management skills within their organisation. The programme is also excellent for personal development both inside and outside of work. The skills and knowledge are very transferable to all walks of life………….. Florence was an excellent facilitator, we were always relaxed and happy to contribute to the course, it was very interactive and Florence always made sure everyone completely understood every section before moving on. The use of group work ensured the course was varied and interesting. There was exactly the right mix of activities to ensure effective learning took place.
“Caring and tenacious trainer”
10/10 I achieved what I set out to. Excellent programme with a caring and tenacious tutor (Florence), who ensured that everyone who was taking part were afforded the time and coaching required to allow them a deeper understanding of NLP…………….I am now more self assured and confident with my anchors in place, an anchor no longer weighs me down but sets me free!
Florence makes learning so easy. Time flies and I had no idea that days could disappear so quickly – I normally have at least one moment in the day when I look at the clock – Not with Florence, she is captivating in her delivery of the subject, and how she mixes the practical with the theoretical – wish it had been like this when I was at school. Keep up the tremendous work Florence.
The venue is fabulous – such a changing face on the World through the windows – mirroring the changes taking place inside.
“You’re worth it”
It was eye opening and challenging……. I could appreciate the thought, care and attention to detail within it……………I liked that it had a ‘you’re worth it’ feel to the venue, food etc………….. I really enjoyed the course – and I could happily take it further. I will be advocating for learning about NLP and about the effectiveness and Business Practitioner courses with Florence in particular, for my team.
“First class”
The content and presentation was first class and there was no effort spared to ensure the course was special and meaningful to all. Quite ‘unique’ really….. I have increased my tolerance of the importance of others and their contributions in solutions. I think I am more considered and most importantly I seen the benefit of establishing rapport and how working together for common goals is much easier than going it alone…………..Florence is always focussed on delivery of the highest level and her planning of detail is of the highest level which always make every session meaningful……………. The venue is top class and a major part of a unique working scene where people are fully at home and able to work in an outstanding relaxed environment.
What is NLP?
*The name Neuro-Linguistic Programming was invented in the early 70′s as an attempt to describe in a succinct manner the scope of this extensive body of insights and skills:
- Neuro refers to how the mind and body interact
- Linguistic refers to the insights into a person’s thinking that can be obtained by careful attention to their use of language
- Programming refers, not to the activity of programming, but to the study of the thinking and behavioural patterns or ‘programmes’ which people use in their daily lives.
In practice NLP is like a user’s manual for the brain.
It is the study of excellent communication – both with yourself, and with others. It was developed by modelling excellent communicators and therapists who got results with their clients. NLP is sometimes seen as a set of tools and techniques, but it is so much more than that. It is an attitude and a methodology of knowing how to achieve your goals and get results.
And of course as such………..it has applications both in work and personal life !
