Introduction

What is NLP?

NLP, or Neuro Linguistic Programming, is the study of how people “know what they know and do what they do.” It consists of a suite of proven techniques that consistently effect deep and lasting behavioural change. You’ll integrate various approaches, truly living them. By mastering the principles that drive human behaviour, you’ll transform not only your mindset but also your actions– including any you’d like to improve

NLP is practical, useful and well-proven

It consists of a body of practical, useful, down-to-earth techniques that work consistently to effect deep and lasting behavioural change. It’s been proven worldwide and with millions of people and is backed by Neuro-scientific research. However, you won’t just learn stuff–you’ll integrate the skills so you really ‘live’ them! You’ll develop your ability and learn how to get your message across authentically and in ways that cause change.

NLP isn’t a quick fix

Although some of the fixes are quick! NLP is like many other modalities in as much as the more skill you have, the quicker you can make the fixes. At the end of NLP Practitioner training, you will have the skills you need to effect the changes you want. After that, the more you practice, the more mastery you’ll gain.

Effectiveness and success go hand-in-hand

Whether dealing with staff, colleagues, partners, kids, trainees, customers, or even your boss, influence and persuasion are key. Without these skills, your effectiveness and success are limited. With NLP strategies and tools, you’ll make lasting changes and discover a newfound sense of self and authenticity. The resulting improvements will enhance all your relationships. (Check out the testimonials for stories from past participants.)

How Do You Effect Change

It all starts with you. By tapping into your hidden strengths and potential, you break through barriers and develop flexible new ways of thinking and being. Many participants notice increased optimism and confidence, which naturally and positively influence others. You’ll also acquire skills to lead and coach people effectively.

In all probability, like me, you’ve attended numerous bum-numbing seminars and wasted time and money on hit and miss approaches. Approaches that haven’t necessarily delivered the changes you’d hoped for. In the process, you’ve acquired plenty of theoretical ‘head knowledge’.

But head knowledge doesn’t necessarily change anything

Head knowledge is when you know ‘about’ something. But knowing about something doesn’t automatically mean you can easily and comfortably put it into practice. Just as reading a book about driving a car and studying the road code wouldn’t be enough to enable you to confidently drive a car out on the road!

Without practical skills to move you forward, you continue to search for something else that’s going to give you what you want…

To be a positive influence in the world, you need to know how people ‘tick’

Contrary to popular opinion, you can’t treat everyone as you want to be treated. Well, you can—and you possibly have—but don’t expect them to react the way that you would respond. People react in their own unique (and sometimes  infuriating!) ways. Through NLP, you’ll learn how to effectively navigate these differences.

This means you need a variety of skills and behaviours to be effective in your coaching/leading/influencing role. Unfortunately, there is no ‘one size fits all’. The more flexible your thinking and behaviours, the more people you’re able to guide, mentor and coach. The knowledge and skills you’ll gain on NLP Practitioner Certification Training enable creativity and flexibility of behaviour which are the keys to success in all the areas of life.

Who Is NLP Practitioner Training For?

Inside Your Mind NLP training is for you if you want to:

Elevate Your Business Management Capacity
Enhance your ability to manage and lead staff, and make improvements in your personal and professional life that ripple out to those you lead.

Coach and Influence Others’ Growth
Sharpen your skills to coach or positively influence others, empowering them to reach their potential and drive your team’s success.

Step Out of Your Own Way
Get out of your own way and live your life with purpose. Overcome limitations, reclaim control, and lead with authenticity.

Boost Your Professional Performance
Take your professional performance to the next level. Develop a personal leadership style that’s not only effective but authentically yours.

Conquer Fear and Unlock Potential
Conquer the fears that keep you stuck and stagnating, and step into your full potential as a leader. Inspire and motivate those around you to do the same.

Have Fun While Learning State-of-the-Art Skills
Whether you’re managing a team, coaching, or working in a highly demanding role, you’ll learn state-of-the-art skills that are both fun and immediately applicable.

Real Skills—In Real-Time
Over the course of this 18-day internationally recognised and certified NLP Practitioner Training, you’ll acquire holistic skills that seamlessly integrate into both your personal and professional life.

Participants come from diverse occupations, including business, coaching, healthcare, education, training, sales, management, engineering, and human resources. They share a curiosity about what makes people ‘tick’ and a desire to continuously develop while having fun learning.

Enhance Your Coaching and Development Abilities
If you have responsibilities in coaching or staff development, you’ll find essential skills to enhance your existing capabilities. This training equips you to not only manage and lead staff effectively but also to coach them to higher levels of performance.

Develop Skills to Lead and Coach Others
With NLP Practitioner Training, you become the change through your learning and development, growing into a more effective and authentic leader. By adopting new, flexible ways of thinking and behaving, you naturally influence those around you. Lead by example, develop skills to manage and lead staff, and coach others to achieve their best.

Inside Your Mind NLP Practitioner Training is structured into three, 6-day modules. This means it’s easier to fit into your schedule, get lots of practice in between modules, and achieve all the outcomes you desire.

The modules must be completed in order because each builds on the skills learned in the previous module. You can complete your certification at your own pace, provided that all three modules are taken within 3 years. This is an important consideration for busy professionals.

Please note: This training exceeds the requirements of  IANLP,  NLP Institutes  and ICI.

All change begins with you—no matter what. That means that all training is first and foremost personal development. After all, how can you help others change if you don’t learn the skills for yourself first? Hence the name of the first Module of NLP Practitioner Training; The Power of Personal Change. The changes you make on this Module will have major positive flow-on effects to all your relationships and set you up to easily negotiate Modules two and three.

• Complete some assignments and tests. (These are simple and straightforward, and most can be completed at your own pace and in your own time.)

Your qualifications

Your qualifications must be recognised not only by your trainer but by international organisations with high standards. Your NLP Practitioner Certification through Inside Your Mind will surpass the stringent criteria set by the International Association of NLP  (IANLP) based in Switzerland.

You also have the opportunity to have your qualification recognised and sealed through the International Association of NLP Institutes (IN) in Germany. Choosing this option will enable you to continue, after your NLP Certification, to achieve a Coaching qualification through the International Association of Coaching Institutes (ICI). This option is recommended if you think you’d like to qualify as a coach after completing your NLP Practitioner Certification Training. Please note there is an extra charge for the IN seal of approximately $NZ50.

The course environment

Small groups of participants mean you get the individual attention you deserve and the changes you want. The trainer places a high value on creating a fun and relaxing learning environment where you feel free to ask questions and take on new challenges. The training space is a safe zone where you can grow, share and practice new skills.

Training Philosophy

Learning should be fun

I’m naturally optimistic and cheerful, and I bring these qualities to my training. I love sharing jokes (in case you hadn’t noticed) and finding ways to interact that are enjoyable and fun. Learning sticks better when you associate it with the fun you had. I believe that when you’re sharing laughter, you’re learning—and that learning should be fun!

Laughter Breaks Down Barriers

In a training situation, laughter breaks down barriers and brings people together. I enjoy finding the funny side of everyday situations and encouraging you to see things differently. This helps you observe more closely and enhances your learning experience.

Freedom to Be Yourself

There’s no greater freedom than being yourself. By being myself, I hope you’ll feel free to be fully yourself too.

Learning is a partnership

Learning occurs naturally and in partnership. This means you’ll learn a great deal from the other participants on your course, as well as from me. And every time I facilitate a course, I gain new insights from participant questions and each person’s unique way of processing information.

Challenge is important

Taking on new challenges is how you grow and develop. It gets you out of your comfort zone. Because you’ll be stepping out of your comfort zone, I like to ensure there’s a safe, supportive comfort zone for you to return to.

Relaxation and Confidence

People don’t learn well when they’re stressed. I do my best to provide a safe, supportive, and comfortable environment where you can learn easily. I’ll be there to guide and support you on your journey of personal and professional growth.

Seizing The Learning Moment 

By being adaptable, I can help you meet your training goals. I incorporate the most up-to-date information into each training and answer your questions when you need answers. I’ll engage with you in the moment while maintaining some structure, and make complex material easy to understand.

This approach ensures a dynamic, enjoyable, and effective learning experience for everyone involved.

Your NLP Practitioner manual

The training manual contains over 300 pages, and there are another 200 pages of articles to substantiate and extend your learning. Your manual provides you with an ongoing resource and reference both during and after the training.

It contains all the information you’ll need to use the skills long after the course has finished. You’ll use the manual as you’re learning, and make your own relevant notes.

Course venue

Filled with natural light, Papahua Hui Room at the Raglan Holiday Park is located across the footbridge on the edge of Raglan Township.

It’s comfortable and quiet, yet everything is easily accessible. We have our own sunny and sheltered courtyard with gas barbecues and tables.  A self contained kitchen with huge fridge means you can bring or prepare your own lunches.  A variety of accommodation is also available on site at varying prices to suit your budget. Please contact the Raglan Holiday Parks directly to organise this.

Why Is The Training In Raglan?

Raglan is a fabulous place to come to for a training course! With friendly people, no traffic or parking hassles and beautiful scenery, Raglan has it all. Choose from the wild West Coast surf or the tranquillity of the inner harbour. Explore bush or beach walks. The various fun activities mean there’s always something to do when you’re not in the training room.

Being away from home for a few days gives you time to make the most of the training by really focusing on you and the changes you want to achieve. Without the normal day-to-day activities that can so easily distract you, you’re free to concentrate on learning.

Choosing the right course for your needs

When selecting a course, it’s crucial to ensure it meets your needs, whether that’s with Inside Your Mind Limited or another provider. Verify that the training aligns with international standards and is recognised by organisations and institutes beyond the one you’re considering.

There are courses available at various price points—some cheaper and some much more expensive. Inside Your Mind offers shorter courses as well, giving you flexibility depending on your outcomes.
