NLP and Leadership

An A4 manual for trainers, managers and coaches.

​Everyone is a leader – constantly influencing the people and events around them. But often leadership qualities lie dormant, waiting to be kindled and fanned into life.

 

This manual takes the mystique out of leadership (and NLP) with over 50 recommended activities and shows how they can be incorporated into workshops or used as stand-alone exercises. A leadership questionnaire helps you decide which exercises are relevant to your needs.

 

This manual is the product of Sue’s extensive research into leadership qualities. Using her characteristically clear and easy-to-read style she converts this research into practical exercises, which will help anyone develop their leadership skills. It contains 50 activities for use on a pick and mix basis, a questionnaire to pinpoint activities that will best meet your needs, warm up exercises and three one-day programmes, with notes on how to run the programmes successfully.
