If you are unable to attend a portion of the training, you will receive MP3 recordings of the content for those days and you can pick up that module in either Kirkland or Vancouver. We will help you organize a study group with your classmates to make up the missed material. In addition, if this training is offered (as it has been for the past 22 years), you are welcome to attend the live training next time it is offered to pick up the days you missed.
You’ll learn what the most successful people know, say, and do plus how to deal with difficult people, clarify and achieve your goals, and speak the language of leadership. There’s more: systems thinking, timing, nonverbal communication, negotiating like a pro, conversational metaphor, and influencing with integrity.

The training begins with "people skills" and fascinating and in-depth tour of the three learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic.
Discover your style and consider how it is woven into to every area of your life; relating to others, managing stress, making decisions, business dealings, and risk-taking. The “art of connection” teaches how to read the cues from others, determine their communication style, tailor your language to meet them, and creating good rapport, even in challenging situations.
You’ll learn the power of nonverbal communication, the masks of perception, positive language patterns, and states of excellence. The "language of influence," developed by world-renowned Dr. Milton Erickson, enhances your communication in business, sales, and personal relationships. Through self-study, you’ll be able to recognize your "blind spots" and learn multiple ways to minimize or eliminate them. Psycho-geography will reveal how physical proximity affects your interactions, enabling you to recognize cues and make necessary adjustments to maximize your interactions and avoid difficulties as you get top results. This is particularly relevant to business communications.
Each richly experiential weekend brings fun, new friends, and exciting strategies for building confidence, negotiating like a pro, transforming criticism into valuable feedback, defeating old patterns of self-sabotage, taming undermining internal voices that have been holding you back, being a better speller, responding in a new way in a challenging situation, learning a new skill or action, and modeling an expert.
Some of the best-known NLP techniques come next: changing personal history, the rewind technique for resolving fears, trauma, and phobias, resolving internal conflict, understanding a symptom as communication from yourself, and anchoring, a technique for giving you rapid access to positive states of mind.
Become adept at taking multiple points of view to provide more possibilities. Review difficult events from past events to "tape edit" the sights and sounds to ensure a better outcome in the future. Learn the tools peak performance consultants employ to facilitate, mediate differences, and find agreement. Learn the psychological processes Olympic athletes use to set new records.
Whether you are looking for tools for a better life at home, at work, in your community, personally or professionally, during a transition at any stage of life, you'll find them in this training.
