NLP for Dummies is my “dog-eared-go-to-guide.” It’s written in an easy to understand style without all of the highly technical language of the therapy/pscyhology field. Available in book format, and on audible.com and this NLP cheat sheet will keep you focused and curious.
Body Language is a big part of building rapport ( rapport is one of the foundations of NLP). There are many good books about body language, some of my favorites are: You Say More Than You Think: A 7 day Plan for using the New Body Language to Get What You Want. One of my favorite insights is from page 54 which gives a strategy for a strong introduction. Get the Belly Button Rule on Page 66.
There is a powerful NLP technique called ” Acting As If”. This Ted Talk by Ann Cuddy will give you some insight into the body language of confidence.
Shelle Rose Charvet is famous in NLP Circles. Her book Words that Change Minds, Mastering the Language of Influence uses the LAB Profile Pattern Summary to help us observe the patterns of motivation that will shorten a sales cycle.
