Anyone here "into" NLP ?
I'd be interested in your view as to whether its bulltulip, or a valuable people skill.
I'm wondering if I can be bothered to read a book on it
Edit: NLP = Neuro-Linguistic Programming
One definition here from an NLP site:
NLP is a multi-dimensional process that involves the development of behavioural competence and flexibility, but also involves strategic thinking and an understanding of the mental and cognitive processes behind behaviour. NLP provides tools and skills for the development of states of individual excellence, but it also establishes a system of empowering beliefs and presuppositions about what human beings are, what communication is and what the process of change is all about. At another level, NLP is about self-discovery, exploring identity and mission. It also provides a framework for understanding and relating to the 'spiritual' part of human experience that reaches beyond us as individuals to our family, community and global systems. NLP is not only about competence and excellence, it is about wisdom and vision.
More pragmatically, it seems to be about getting what you want by influencing others.
