Skills for being at your best

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is a developing field of behavioural psychology. It examines the structure of our subjective experience, to discover how we can repeat things that promote our well being, and cease doing things that are no longer useful to us. These skills are particularly effective in extending the range of skills you can use with other people, in extending the situations in which you can use your skills, and in giving your skills a clear structure, to enable you to teach others.

NLP skills are simply the skills which we all use to develop our own potential, and the potential of the people we manage, those we live with, and those who come to us for help. We all are good at some of them; but few of us are good at all of them. Come and extend your range of excellent skills.

The challenge for today’s leaders is developing a technology for designing innovative corporate strategies, with the flexibility to adapt to market forces, and stay ahead of the field. Learn to create an order that is capable of changing and evolving in sympathy with the needs of the organisation, and those of its people. NLP skills allow you to make the changes you want, not the ones that are forced on you.

NLP Northeast has been teaching NLP up here for 22 years. We try to set fees that individual people, and small businesses, can afford. Our courses are on weekends so you can come outside of work hours. We believe that these skills are particularly useful to people who work with people: nurses, youth workers, managers, volunteers, teachers, social care workers. We offer bursaries to those on very low incomes, to the homeless, to charities.

Our trainers are all accredited trainers of NLP, and our courses meet the criteria of the Professional Guild of NLP, of which we are a founding member. Caitlin Walker, Lysa Morrison, and Gary Lintern presently train for NLP Northeast.

Our lead trainer is Cricket Kemp BA PGCE MA. Cricket spent five years teaching primary school teachers in Northern Nigeria. She has taught in the special needs department of a Newcastle secondary school, worked with schools in Cleveland to improve results with secondary pupils with learning and behavioural problems, was a Group Human Resources Manager with international chemical company, Tioxide, was on the faculty of Management Centre Europe in Brussels, and was a Management Consultant for ten years. She is now researching the acquisition of literacy skills, and she still teaches NLP, because it can make a real difference in the world.
