LINGUISTICS IS OUR MIDDLE NAME

If Coaching is anything, it is a conversation. It is a dialogue and an interchange in language. And given that, no wonder Neuro-Semantics have a real advantage—the foundation of everything we do goes back to the NLP model and that means linguistics is our middle name. That’s why the Meta-Coach training begins with NLP, with “Coaching Essentials” and hence with the Meta-Model.

Now do you know what the whole purpose and design of the Meta-Model is? It is to give you systematic control over language—yours and those of the people you engage in conversation. Did you know that? The Meta-Model first trains your intuitions to be able to recognize certain linguistic distinctions that indicate missing portions regarding the construction of meaning and it then gives you powerful questions that address those distinctions. The questions enable you to fill in the missing portions. Those questions give you control over the way you use language so that it serves you well and enhances your life and so that it does not hypnotize you or others without your permission.
