I was there when NLP was being created back in the 70’s and it had a profound impact on me. It boosted my confidence in the work I did and gave me tools that I use to this day. Unfortunately, here in the States, NLP got a bad reputation, mostly due to the cavalier, arrogant and sometimes aggressive attitude of some of the early practitioners. However, as I travel around the world, NLP has a much better reputation and I have met some exceptional trainers abroad that really do it well, with compassion and with integrity. One of those trainers is my friend and colleague Gordon Young in Sydney, Australia. If you are in Australia and want to do NLP, you should definitely look at the IAP program.
