How my ‘product’ is developing

I believe in the transformational effect of good training, and I am passionate about investing in my own development as well.

Having trained as an NLP Trainer with Sue Knight in France and Robert Dilts, Judith Delozier and Judy Lowe in Crete, I  deliver NLP courses at home and occasionally abroad  (for more info take a look at my NLP Training page).  I have also trained in New Code NLP with John Grinder with specific focus on mobilising the power of the unconscious mind in the coaching environment. The importance of ‘our way of being’ around others and the power of developmental feedback were key learnings from all of them and what I hope I have taken back into my work.

I have also had the privilege of working with Nancy Kline (author ‘Time To Think) to become a ‘Thinking Partner’, which informs my coaching practice. How to create a ‘Thinking Environment’ in the workplace where people can think for themselves, is central to Nancy’s approach. The simple truth is that organisations need to derive value from everyone they employ and so naturally ‘helping people to create a ‘Thinking Environment’ impacts on all of my individual and team development work.

I have been inspired by all of them with regard to how things can be done better in organisations, and I aim to take my learning into my work to make a difference!
