Practical NLP Podcast show

Summary: In this podcast we continue to explore the set of 'marker' language patterns and associated magic questions for uncovering missing information or helping us to realign our 'mental maps' with reality that in NLP is known as the 'Meta Model'. This week we're focusing on the patterns that can be broadly classed as 'generalisations'. These include 'universal quantifiers' - what we would normally think of as 'generalisations' in everyday English- plus 'modal operators', the 'rules' about what we or others must, should or ought to do (generalisations about necessity) and about what we can or can't do (generalisations about possibility). Includes: The tip-off words for spotting a generalisation Why sweeping generalisations feel true to the person making them A subtle way to 'challenge' shoulds, oughts and musts without losing rapport Listen and/or subscribe to this podcast via iTunes here If you want to subscribe using something other than iTunes (e.g. if you have an Android phone), here’s the feed: http://coachingleaders.co.uk/feed/podcast/ For the most convenient way to listen to this podcast on iPhone, iPad, Android phone or tablet, get the free Practical NLP Podcast app. Duration: 7m04s If you liked this podcast, please review it on iTunes!
