I will start this by saying, " I am not anywhere as experianced as most of you and when it comes to NLP I am like a child with a new toy that I can't get enough of."
Yesterday for the first time I actualy "Used" NLP in a "real life" situation. I had been having some communication problems with my boss. So, I broke open my books a few weeks ago and began reminding my self of things forgotten. ( You don't use it you loose it) A couple days ago It dawned on me. " Bill is a tword/options/Global and you are Tword/Detail/Proactive No wonder you two don't understand each other!" So yesterday I went into his office to discuss a project that we both have been wanting to get off the ground for about 9 months now. I focused very close to his speech patterns and slowly began carefuly mirroring him verbaly and physicly. HOLY COW It was like the clouds parted and the angels began to sing. Once I began to explain my concerns about getting the project started.... You could see it in his tone of voice, body language, the manner in which he spoke to me. It was as if instantly it went from Boss to employee to we were peers.
Results: Found out today. Project kick off meeting with all terminal managers involved is in a week and a half.
