This week I’ve been going back through my NLP Practitioner notes and putting them in to an order that makes sense to me, whilst taking the opportunity to index them for ease of use. Now I’m regularly coaching it’s handy to have all of my notes in one place in some logical form.
I’m also revising the Meta-Model, an approach to questioning so powerful that I’ve seen it elicit major change in people without having to open up the “NLP toolbox”, and so it’s something that I am working on becoming really good at. During the course, one of our trainers, Peter Freeth, unveiled his take on questioning, The Unsticker. The idea is that the questions posed cause you to change your perspective on a problem in such a way that it doesnt actually matter what order they are asked in, just that they are asked. We’ve worked with this tool and it’s fascinating to see the responses despite the fact that each question takes no notice of the previous answer!
Anyway, it turns out that Peter has kindly put The Unsticker online, so you can pose your own question and be e-coached on the solution to it. If anything proves the fact that you have all the resources you need to make your own changes then this is it. Head over to http://www.ciauk.com/changemagic/unsticker.php and try it out. This works best with someone else posing you the question but of course you can use it solo if you like.
Peter Freeth can be found at www.excellerate.org, and has authored 4 books - NLP in Business, 6 Questions, NLP - Tools for Learning and Change Magic. All are available at www.ciauk.com.
