Episode 4 - Presuppositions of NLP and Coaching

In this podcast episode, executive coaches Kylie Roberts and Mel Wombwell of SHIFT unlimited take a deep dive into the presuppositions of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and coaching.  They discuss why they believe these can be powerful tools for modern leadership in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world.  The hosts cover key beliefs such as everyone has a unique model of the world, the map is not the territory, all behaviour has a positive intention, and resistance is a sign of a lack of rapport.  Listen now to learn how these principles are seen as empowering for leaders and coaches, allowing them to promote open-mindedness, curiosity, and empowerment in the people they interact with.  Follow Kylie  Linkedin   Follow Mel  Linkedin   Follow SHIFT unlimited Instagram   00:00 Introduction to SHIFT unlimited and the New Normal 00:40 The SHIFT unlimited Podcast Series 01:23 Exploring the Presuppositions of NLP and Coaching 02:54 Understanding the Concept of 'Map of the World' 03:52 Respecting Other People's Map of the World 04:41 The Map is Not the Territory 05:45 People are Not Their Behavior 07:28 The Meaning of Behavior is Dependent Upon the Context 08:22 All Behavior Has a Positive Intention 09:48 The Most Important Information About a Person is Their Behavior 10:43 Everyone is Doing the Best They Can with the Resources They Have 12:10 There are No Unresourceful People, Only Unresourceful States 14:05 Everyone Has All the Resources They Need Within Them 15:33 The Person with the Most Behavioral Flexibility Has the Most Influence 18:53 There's No Failure, Only Feedback 19:19 Everyone is in Charge of Their Own Mind and Therefore Their Results 20:16 The Meaning of Communication is the Response You Get 21:35 Resistance is a Sign of a Lack of Rapport 22:36 Conclusion: The Power of NLP and Coaching Presuppositions Please find all images mentioned in this episode available HERE
