Neuro-Linguistic programming (NLP) is the practice where users can connect neurological processes to linguistic processes through behaviour, and subsequently use this “programming" to achieve specific goals.
Fran Trousdale is one of the finest practitioners of Neuro-Linguistic programming (NLP) in the HR industry. Furthermore, by using her knowledge of the system, she has been able to revolutionise her approach to create effective, and long-lasting HR systems.
In this episode, Fran certainly delivers a powerful, practical masterclass in NLP, and demonstrates the many ways in which it can revitalise and empower your workforce.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Without doubt, the use of NLP techniques in every moment of life can help to subconsciously and consciously develop our communication and interaction skills. In HR, it can serve to provide certainty across many outcomes.
Above all, the basis for NLP in HR is to always begin by examining the intent behind the purpose. We need to visualise the positive result, or the win-win. Apply the techniques of NLP to achieve it!
Certainly, too many HR professionals seek to cure the symptoms of a problem. However, we should focus on the root cause. This creates lasting change that will prevent future symptoms from appearing.
Simple alterations such as the word “and” instead of “but” during feedback, can charge your comments with positivity instead of negativity.
Reframing is the process of taking your subject outside of their current perspective and allowing them to see the many positive outcomes without remaining emotionally involved.
