How inspirational is this Guru?Derren BrownAlthough Derren Brown is most famous for his fascinating television shows broadcast in the UK, he has a solidreputation for his unequaled development of NLP and hypnosis. In fact, Derren’s effortless demonstration of NLPto manipulate the thoughts of his guest stars was what got me interested in NLP in the first place! Derren Brownactually has a flexible view of NLP which is similar to my own. Rather than adhering to rigid methods set out byNLP’s original creators, Derren uses wordplay that works well and has adapted a lot of NLP techniques to makethem work a bit more seamlessly. It is for this reason that Derren’s methods are my chosen schema for thetechniques on this website. They work the best. It’s as simple as that. How inspirational is this Guru?John La ValleJohn La Valle One of the World’s most respected corporate consultants and the co-author of ‘PersuasionEngineering’ with Richard Bandler.”When I first became interested in NLP, it was quite by accident. I cameacross a one day basic introduction program and was wowed in the first hour. As soon as I could, I attendedmy first Practitioner program. I quickly figured how best to adapt the technology of NLP into businessapplications. Since then, I have personally trained with most of the ‘major players’ in the field in the 1980’s.I met Richard Bandler early in my training and his attitude and skill appealed to me. He could get results!Being a bottom line business person, I liked that! No fluff, no theories, just get down to it and change!I liked it. What I found most interesting was the fact that I could get results in the business arena.I am still in contact with a lot of my corporate clients across the globe, many of whom have seen theirbusiness multiply year after year. They still bring me in for ‘tune-ups’ from time to time. They hire betterpeople, promote the right ones, train differently and even manage differently. Ultimately they lower theircosts and increase profits. That’s the bottom line! People have asked me what the turning point was for mein my own training. Well the first thing was the moment I realized that it’s not just enough to want, butthen to do. Stepping across that line and just going for it! The second was realizing how powerful languageis and how easily we can change behaviour using just language.

Известен тем, что зарегистрировал домен johngrinder.com и там продвигал свои тренинги. Приватную просьбу Гриндера вернуть домен проигнорировал. После публичных возмущений Гриндера, все таки молча вернул домен. Извинений не последовало. Причём, голосование не предполагает обсуждения различной желтой информации.В общем, голосую за Конниру Андреас.Могу угадать, что в ваших персональных стратегиях полным полно полярных шагов-реакций.
Там еще и Деррен Браун есть, который, насколько я знаю, к нлп относится довольно скептически :)Вот поискал, слова Деррена:I have never claimed to use NLP to achieve my ‘tricks’. On the contrary, I have written very critically about it in Tricks of the Mind. I reserve the same scepticism for subliminal messaging, as well as a lot of body-language reading and the like.http://derrenbrown.co.uk/claim-claim-2/
Голосование в рейтинге является тренировкой вписывания в контекст. В данном случае, в контекст международного рейтингования.Не пойму, что тренируется вписываться в контекст?Могу угадать, что в ваших персональных стратегиях полным полно полярных шагов-реакций.Хм, вы первый обратили на это внимание. В общем то, мне кажется, это так. А это разве плохо иметь много полярных шагов-реакций?
Я пока не разобрался, что это вообще за голосование такое. Включая, что это за странное "хороший/вдохновляющий". Меня лично никто из них особо не вдохновляет. То есть я даже понять не могу, в какое место шкалы надо тыкать, если я захочу кого-то оценить.Дурацкое, вне индуизма, слово "гуру".Я большую часть людей ВООБЩЕ не знаю.Наличие в голосовании вместе с ними БиГ-ов и Андреасов. То есть в одной куче разные лиги.Отсутствие Роббинса, который как раз таки очень любит задвигать всякие мотивационные речи, то есть вдохновлять.Наличие Брауна, который гипнотизер, к нлп не имеющий отношения.
--Голосование в рейтинге является тренировкой вписывания в контекст. В данном случае, в контекст международного рейтингования.--Не пойму, что тренируется вписываться в контекст? Тренировка типа социально-ролевой игры. В роли критика вы разносите нлп в пух и прах. В подходящем контексте. В роли активиста нлп вы ищете в нём позитив.--Могу угадать, что в ваших персональных стратегиях полным полно полярных шагов-реакций.--Хм, вы первый обратили на это внимание. В общем то, мне кажется, это так. А это разве плохо иметь много полярных шагов-реакций?Смотря в каком контексте. В контексте, предполагающем некие разносторонние рассмотрения, полярность является ресурсом. В противном случае – полярность антиресурс.

Выбор стоял между Бэндлером и Андреасом. Бэндлер, конечно, гений. Даже знакомые высокопоставленные нэлперы, которые не в восторге (от слова "вообще") от его поведения и считают, что он всё-таки убил ту проститутку, признают - в первую очередь признают! - что Бэндлер гений. А потом всё остальное.А вот Андреас в моём представлении честный трудяга. Очень техничный, эксплицитный. Использующий по минимуму специальную терминологию, а с клиентами - так вообще не использующий. Человек, описавший в деталях много техник. Человек, создавший много моделей. Оставивший - и это уже, ещё при жизни, - богатейшее наследие как в форме книг, так и в форме видео.Вот я за него. И если кого записывать в со-разработчики, так это его, на мой взгляд.
