Improve Recruitment Strategies

Employee retention can be greatly improved by hiring the right people in the first place. Unfortunately, too many old school recruitment techniques are still being used. I (Heidi) cringe whenever I hear “what do you think your strengths and weakness are”, or “give me an example in a previous job when you X”. Capability and behaviour based interviews don’t always find the best candidates for your roles. Recruitment generally works by soliciting resumes, looking through those resumes for someone who has the skillset or background that you are looking for, and when you get them in front of you, during the interview you’re looking for ‘are they the right fit’. What does that mean? The right fit? Is that skills or person?  Skills can be taught, mindset is a harder thing to train. Have you ever seen the most competent and skilled person hired for a job, but they still didn’t fit somehow? That’s mindset. With NLP, we look at a variety of unconscious filters that you can easily identify while talking to another person – and we match those to the filters that might be required for the job, the workplace, the team and the way the person will be managed. Instead of asking about a behavioural aspect, ask instead “tell me about an aspect of your current/past job that you truly enjoyed” – this will give you...

Improve Your Spiritual Health

So what does NLP have to do with spiritual health? The answer – nothing, yet everything. From a purely scientific and neuro-science perspective, spirit is outside and separate to a person. However, from our own perspective and point of view – we humans are much more than just a mind and body, we are also spirit. This doesn’t necessarily mean God, angels, spirits or anything esoteric; however, depending on your beliefs, it might! For us, the spirituality of NLP encapsulates everything that is outside of ‘proof’. This might include energy, intuition, dreams, knowingness, the collective universal consciousness and yes – some of the esoteric elements. If you’ve ever studied any energetic healing like reiki, psychometry, quantum theory or even the law of attraction, you will already understand this aspect of spirituality. Everyone has had an experience where you walk into a room where a heated argument has just occurred. You can feel that energy, can’t you? That energy is simply matter. And we store this matter or energy inside and outside of ourselves. Sometimes, people have an energetic block that stops them from moving forward, continually provides examples of self-sabotage and draws to them what they don’t want in life. NLP contains a variety of tools that will help you to clear energetic blocks, create outlets to release negative energy, tap into positive resources and create a spiritual flow...

Understand Others

  In every single situation we filter what is going on around us and inside of us based on our personal history, our memories, our beliefs, our values and many other various unconscious filters (Meta Programs).  Once we filter an event, we automatically distort, delete and generalise it to make sense of it for ourselves. This is what is known as our Model of the World. This filtering process explains why you and your very best friend can have very different understandings of the exact same thing- because you have filtered it differently. Everything we do, every behaviour we have, every decision we make and everything we say is based on this filtering process. It is understood that the majority of our filters were built or created during our Imprint Stage. According to Developmental Psychologist, Dr. Morris Massey, between the ages of 0-7 is the Imprint Stage where we have very few filters in place and we start to create our beliefs, values and various other programs based on the people, environment and conditions around us. It is during this timeframe that the majority of our filters are created. If I have a friend who is very clingy and wants to check in with me on a more-than-regular-basis, a few questions and some observations may be able to tell me that this friend has a fear of being abandoned....

Regain Control of Your Life

Have you ever felt out of control or like you were no longer in charge of your life? Perhaps its felt like you are on a never ending loop of sameness. NLP has a presupposition that says you are in charge of your mind and therefore your results. With NLP, you can truly start to harness your life and be the leader, not just a participant. Often times we find that when people feel out of control, they are either wandering through life without a plan or a goal, they are aimlessly following others hoping someone else has their answers, or they are holding onto the reigns of life so tightly they have gotten stuck and can’t move forward. Not only will NLP help you to identify what you want; NLP will help you to find out what is truly important to you, what is within your control and help you to create a plan of action to create more success in your life. Sometimes we have beliefs, emotions, thoughts or other people in our life that hold us back. You will gain valuable tools to change and patterns which are not working in your favour so you can take back control of life. And, sometimes we haven’t yet given our self complete permission to be in charge. When you can start to define what control means to you...
