NLP for Leaders: The Subtle Art of Communication
A masterclass in clear and effective communication
Overview:
Communication is often on the top of the list when asked ‘what needs to improve around here?’/p>
When communication breaks down it can quickly degenerate into ‘us/them’ attitudes and defensive behaviours that damage or limit your business. In 1:1 interactions difficult communication is often described as a ‘personality clash’. But why do attempts to improve communication often fail?
You may have communicated a message, but how is your message received, if at all? Have you ever felt that you were talking to deaf ears? Have you ever wondered how a simple enough message could be misinterpreted?
Outline:
In this NLP for Leaders session you will delve beneath the radar of conscious awareness to identify how people receive, interpret and attach meanings to communication. You will explore how you use your senses of vision, hearing and feelings to create your unique style of communication and identify the values and beliefs that act as drivers to communication. You will discover where you are being less effective than you would like to be.
Communication tends to focus on the words people use, but this only accounts for 7% of the overall meaning drawn from a person’s communication. On this masterclass you will explore the 93% non-verbal communication through eye movements, physiology, gesture, expression, voice characteristics and verbal patterns.
Through experiential learning and practical examples you will learn how to read a person’s communication process and respond in ways that fully engage and create real meaning for the recipient. You will learn how to flex your communication process to communicate more effectively with a wider range of people and in a wider variety of contexts including 1:1; small and large groups and formal presentations.
This is a highly interactive, fun workshop complementing the other workshop “NLP for Leaders: The Psychology of Relationships” very well. This workshop is ideal for a retreat .
