Neuro Linguistic Programming has evolved into an accessible and effective form of business training.

When it comes to competence and attitude training, there have been many initiatives that have come and gone. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) has not only stood the test of time it has evolved over the past 30 years into a leading process for change. NLP is a learning tool for improving communication, thinking skills – and adopting successful attitudes. NLP involves studying successful and highly effective people – and 'modeling' their methods. The training is accessible, affordable and can literally transform careers and organizations internationally.

"Key people in business or government investing in NLP training – can acquire a wider range of competencies." Michael Beale saw the potential of integrating the power of NLP with business best practice and founded PPI Business NLP, a training and business performance company. Michael Beale and PPI trainers ensure their programs are constantly updated with the latest developments in NLP. PPI has the endorsement of Richard Bandler, co-founder of NLP.

PPI provides flexible, modular training programs. Participants have the opportunity to evaluate their learning in one area, before moving on to the next.

The company's clients have come from both leading private, public organizations and government departments responding to the challenge of change. These include Abbey, Accenture, Argos, Barclays, BT, British Aerospace, ODPM, The PM's Strategy Office and the main public services. Michael Beale and his team structure the learning around the client’s needs – to deliver one-to-one coaching, in-house courses or 'open' seminars.

PPI's website to date has received 350,000 hits demonstrating the present level of interest in the market place.

PPI's Practitioner Modules unlock personal capabilities. Individuals gain the confidence and the ability to influence and negotiate. Building rapport, problem solving and handling difficult situations become much more manageable – and a lot less stressful.

Many course participants progress to the Master Practitioner modules; which include leadership, executive coaching, sales, consultancy, presenting impact and hypnotic influence.

Free 'taster' sessions are available in London and in Milton Keynes – These sessions can be fun, rewarding and provide an insight into the value of NLP.

"Business NLP training isn't a mysterious art," says Michael. "It's a proven way to develop a set of tools and attitudes that enable us to have more choices in every situation – choices that enable us to get results and success."
