Goal Getting: Achieving your Outcomes
This program can be adapted for a 1-3 day training
Most training courses teach people how to make a goal and a plan to achieve the goal. Most of the time, they tell people to visualize themselves acting perfectly in a situation at work. In reality, the perfect situation does not exist - things always have a way of going wrong! In this program, you will learn to imagine all the possible reactions people could have to your goal, all the possible things that could go WRONG... AND WHAT NEW SKILLS YOU USED to respond in new and more successful ways!! You will develop and master a contingency plan so you can always get your goals. This way, you are prepared for whatever may occur.
Rex will also move your employees away from the "blame frame" and into the "outcome frame". Stop defining the problems, and start deciding what you want and how you are going to get it. Create an outcome-orientated organization. Participants learn to make outcomes that are precise, realistic, achievable, measurable and scheduled. They create action plans and decide exactly when and how to start each outcome.
Human Performance Modeling
Two sessions - each session 4 days
The fundamental element in Neuro Linguistic Programming is a process called modeling, whereby desired behaviors of successful people (or companies) can be extrapolated and taught to others in a simplified format. The first step of being able to do this is gathering information that allows you to build a model. The second step is having enough behavioral flexibility in order to "try on" and perform out of the model.
For example:
A skilled salesperson sells three times as much as her co-workers. When asked what her secret is, she says, "I always keep a positive attitude."
Problem:
This answer doesn't leave us with any information upon which to build a model. We do not yet know HOW she maintains her positive attitude and what she means when she uses the words "positive attitude".
During this seminar, participants learn how to be "modelers", that is, how to gather the information they need and be able to model another person's skill.
In part one, the participants will get experience in using an NLP questioning method in order to gather "usable" information. The questions are designed to uncover information that the listener is thinking but not yet verbalized. You can use these questions when you desire raw data on how a person creates a skill and/or when you need to get clarification on a particular task/assignment.
In part two, the participants will get experience in "trying on" other's behavior. They will learn flexibility in their own behavior so that they can successfully model another person and achieve the same results.
