NLP Collapsing Anchors technique Overview Although anchoring resourceful states plays an important role in helping people handle their emotions, states, and experiences, oftentimes, it is not enough to navigate through complex, painful states.  In such cases, the NLP pattern of the NLP collapsing anchors technique is used to interrupt people in negative or unresourceful states and bring them out into more resourceful states. The pattern of the NLP collapsing anchors technique then enables people to change a response that does not work very well. Scope – the NLP collapsing anchors technique The negative states predominate whenever people experience lots of pain. To address that negative emotional state or situation, and to heal the person, you can use the NLP pattern of collapsing anchors. The NLP pattern of collapsing anchors is thus used extensively in those interventions that aim at managing the state of consciousness and getting rid of unhelpful memories. When people have two states conflicting and sabotaging each other or, if they have an unresourceful state (an old anchored experience) that interferes with life, and they can now let that response collapse into a more resourceful state, the NLP Practitioners and Master Practitioners can help them with this pattern. Characteristics The operating principle behind collapsing anchors pattern is that, when a person experiences two radically different states at the same time, the states tend to interfere or interrupt each other. When the neurology is forced to deal with the messages and experiences of the two states simultaneously, the two states and anchors collapse resulting in one response. For example, you cannot think and feel calm and tense simultaneously. Or cannot think-and-feel joyful and afraid at the same time. If you try to do so, both the contradictory states will interfere or interrupt each other. Even if you force your neurology to keep both the contradictory states, the states will collapse into one response. Thus, when you fire the different anchors of different states simultaneously, it will result in tearing up or dispersing the neurological energies of the states. In simple words, the anchors and states will merge or collapse, and a greater concept will emerge. Sometimes this results in confusion, disorientation, interruption, and even some slight amnesia. In...

There was no dearth of applications when one of the senior Vice President (for organizational development) at one of the leading banks began looking for Executive Coaches to coach some of the senior leaders in the organization, with a mission to find solution to the answer, ‘How to develop leadership skills of current leaders and future leaders?’. Undoubtedly, executive coaching is on the rise because of the positive outcome that companies have noticed. However, most of the Certified Executive Coaching programs have divergent views and many of the coaches have their own unique approach towards coaching, and coaching methodology, and also not a clear direction about how coaching will fit into the broad spectrum of ‘How to develop leadership skills’. While a lot of coaching programs are successful, and are able to bring in participants for the programs through word-of-mouth marketing, great testimonials, social media marketing campaigns, and international accreditation/approvals, some of them may not be worth the time and investment, because the programs are not focusing on the application of Coaching in real situations: Personal and Professional Coaching (Life Coaching, Executive Coaching, Leadership development Coaching, Career Coaching, Sports Coaching etc). The quality of coaching usually depends on the abilities of the coach and their approach to executive coaching, using well proven Coaching methodologies. The corporate world was primarily oblivious of executive coaching and its effects until the 1980s. Since then, executive coaching and executive coaches began to rise and now the growing popularity of executive coaching is a response to one of the most compelling needs (How to develop leadership skills of current leaders and future leaders?) of companies.

Let us look at the ways in which executive coaching helps leaders and organizations achieve their goals, and how to develop leadership skills and future leaders. There are different ways in which executive coaching is approached by the coaches, but all of them generally ensure engagement of the people in a collaborative way. This helps the leaders (executive coaching clients) make the most of their abilities and helps in developing their abilities in a better way making them more efficient, and perform better. By...

NLP Meta Programs People tend to operate differently in different contexts. Moreover, they change with the passage of time. They evolve and learn new and different ways of being. They operate in far too complex ways to be understood. However, NLP Meta Programs allow you to recognize the rules that direct people’s way of thinking. If you are someone who is interested in learning NLP Meta-Programs to gain an understanding of how people actually think, feel, act, perceive, process information, etc then read further. You will gain greater access to the kind of thinking that creates people’s reality. You will develop a high-level understanding of why do people operate differently, and how to deal with people in better ways, and have much more impactful communication. What are NLP Meta Programs? NLP Meta Programs are the perceptual filters and mental processes.  People distort, delete, and generalize information, based on these perceptual filters. They determine the attitude or orientation that people take on in various contexts and situations.  Meta programs get created by using a specific way to think and feel, and then they become our normal way, or a conditioned way to filter information.  Similarly, different ways of thinking/feeling become a Meta Program a perceptual filter. Example: If a person is thinking about every situation as what is the big picture/a big take away, or summary then over a period of time, the person uses this way (Meta Program) to sort things in every aspect, the Meta Program is called (Big Chunk or Global).  The person operating as Big Chunk or Global does not need too much information, a bigger picture works fine for them. So, if you know someone who does not like details, now you know why. Similarly, some people like procedures (Meta program) in how they do things, and then some prefer to operate from choice (Meta program).  Some people like to talk about things in the past (Meta program), some in the future (Meta program), and some in present (Meta program).  Some people like to match (Meta program) people in terms of what is being discussed, they operate from seeking similarities, and then some people like to mismatch (Meta program), they operate from dissimilarities.
