Provocative Coaching

Sometimes change requires a push…

Often with coaching, clients try to avoid responsibility. The more you tell them that they are capable of change, the louder their inner voices tell them they are not. Provocative coaching challenges this. It puts fun and laughter back into your change work.

Frank Farrelly (1931-2013) first called it ‘provoke therapy’ then provocative therapy, and said “Provoking change is not just about playing the devil’s advocate, it’s about the effective use of challenge, warmth and humour in equal measure”.

In this one-day workshop, you will learn:

  • How the approach differs and when to use it
  • Stacking states for a powerful push
  • Pushing by pulling
  • Challenging you clients 1st statement
  • Exaggerate to absurdity
  • Playing Devil’s advocate
  • But what is the problem?
  • Moving beyond your clients limits

This rare opportunity is being offered to those interested in overcoming limitations and those sometimes frustrated with the “Yes but” people.

coaching for change

Coaching for Change - an NLP Perspective

Details include:

Coaching is defined as “enabling clients to shift their perspectives and thereby discover different solutions to achieve their goals”.

Change management is defined as “a structured approach to shifting/transitioning individuals, teams, and organisations from a current state to a desired future state”

The common element is the change of perspective or state.

Coaching for Change is a set of tools to develop belief and behaviour change and to gain commitment by overcoming resistance.

NLP Coaching has a distinct advantage over other forms of coaching as it enable the client to congruently achieve the objectives established in their coaching plan. NLP offers coaches the ability to tailor selected interventions to take into account the client’s unconscious mind where both resources and incongruities are present.

If you are already trained in NLP and want to explore the uses and possibilities of coaching, either in your personal or professional life, this is the ideal course for you. NLP is the perfect foundation from which to build your coaching skills.

It also comes with the reassurance of a robust and internationally recognised qualification from the Society of NLP if that is of interest to you.

What You Will Learn:

  • The relationship between and the differences of coaching, therapy, consulting and counselling.
  • How coaching benefits both the organisation and the individual
  • How coaching skills are essential to managers.
  • The main coaching models and how they fit with NLP
  • How to set goals so you can achieve them
  • How to give feedback that quickly modifies behaviour
  • How to coach a client to achieve their outcomes
