Take two people with similar backgrounds. They may be roughly the same age, come from the same social class. Both have good educational qualifications. Yet one is a good salesperson while the other struggles to connect with clients and close sales. Why?

The reasons that make some people more effective than others has been a source of fascination to psychologists and philosophers for centuries. In 1975, two researchers, Richard Bandler and John Grinder, published a book called ‘The Structure of Magic’. The book was an examination of people who were pre-eminent in their fields: the family therapist Virginia Satir, hypnotist Milton Erikson and psycho-analyst Fritz Perls.

A process called ‘modelling’ was used to examine what it was that these people did that made them so effective. Developing the use of these techniques, along with theories of language (in particular, transformational grammar) developed by Noam Chomsky, Alfred Korzybski and Gregory Bateson, a new discipline called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) was developed. The Meta-Model, a structured process that actively challenges a client’s linguistic and neurological preconceptions, developed by Bandler and Grinder, can be used to train anyone to utilise the same techniques used by successful communicators.
