Dilts and DeLozier, Encyclopedia of Systemic Neuro-Linguistic Programming and NLP New Coding, 2000. The Meta Model, NLP's first formal model, was published in 1975 by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in their ground breaking book, The Structure of Magic, Vol.
We have done everything we can to make sure that your learning environment is the best that it possibly can be. All of us here at the training are available to answer your questions, clarify points, to help you learn a pattern, to discuss the finer points of NLP, or just hang out. The manual you are now reading has been specially designed for readability. The typeface used in most of the body copy is called Century Schoolbook. It's probably the same typeface that was in the book when you learned to read, so it's one of the most readable. We did it in 14-point type, so it should be very readable.
2 Neuro: The nervous system (the mind), through which our experience is processed via five senses:. Visual. Auditory.
Kinesthetic. Olfactory. Gustatory Linguistic: Language and other non-verbal communication systems through which our neural representations are coded, ordered and given meaning. Includes:. Pictures. Sounds.
Feelings. Tastes. Smells. Words (Self Talk) Programming: The ability to discover and utilize the programs that we run (our communication to ourselves and others) in our neurological systems to achieve our specific and desired outcomes.
Is programmed to continually seek more and more There is always more to discover 17. Functions best as a whole integrated unit Does not need parts to function 18. Is symbolic Uses and responds to symbols 19.
Respect for the other person’s model of the world. Behavior and change are to be evaluated in terms of context, and Ecology. Resistance in a client is a Sign of a lack of rapport. (There are no resistant clients, only inflexible communicators. Effective communicators accept and utilize all communication presented to them.) 4. People are not their behaviors.
(Accept the person; change the behavior.) 5. Everyone is doing the best they can with the resources they have available. (Behavior is geared for adaptation, and present behavior is the best choice available. Every behavior is motivated by a positive intent.) 6. Calibrate on Behavior: The most important information about a person is that person’s behavior. The map is not the Territory.
(The words we use are NOT the event or the item they represent) 8. 00 You are in charge of your mind, and therefore your results (and I am also in charge of my mind and therefore my results). People have all the Resources they need to succeed and to achieve their desired outcomes. (There are no unresourceful people, only unresourceful states.) 10. All procedures should increase Wholeness 11. There is Only feedback!
(There is no failure, only feedback.) 12. The meaning of communication is the Response you get. The Law of Requisite Variety: (The system/ person with the most flexibility of behavior will control the system.) 14. All procedures should be Designed to increase choice.
Robert Dilts Robert Dilts has been a developer, author, trainer and consultant in the field of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)—a model of human behavior, learning and communication— since its creation in 1975 by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. A long time student and colleague of both Grinder and Bandler, Mr. Dilts also studied personally with Milton H.
Erickson, M.D., and Gregory Bateson. In addition to spearheading the applications of NLP to education, creativity, health, and leadership, his personal contributions to the field of NLP include much of the seminal work on the NLP techniques of Strategies and Belief Systems, and the development of what has become known as ‘Systemic NLP’.
Some of his techniques and models include: Reimprinting, Integration of Conflicting Beliefs, Sleight of Mouth Patterns, The Spelling Strategy, The Allergy Technique, Neuro-Logical Levels, The Belief Change Cycle, Generative NLP Patterns, the Unified Field Theory for NLP and many others. He is the principle author of Neuro-Linguistic Programming Vol.
I (with John Grinder, Richard Bandler and Judith DeLozier, 1980), which serves as the standard reference text for the field, and has authored numerous other books on NLP. Changing Belief Systems with NLP (1990) and Beliefs: Pathways to Health and Well Being (with Tim Hallbom and Suzi Smith, 1990) describe his work in changing limiting beliefs and creating functional belief systems.
Tools for Dreamers (with Todd Epstein and Robert W. Dilts, 1991) and Skills for the Future (with Gino Bonissone, 1993), explore the applications of NLP to manage and enhance creativity. Effective Presentation Skills (1994) covers the key skills necessary for successful public speaking.
Strategies of Genius Vols. I–III (1994-1995), apply the tools of NLP to model the thinking processes of important historical figures; including Aristotle, Sherlock Holmes, Disney, Mozart, Einstein, Freud, Leonardo and Nikola Tesla.
Dynamic Learning (with Todd Epstein, 1995), explores the development of effective strategies for learning and teaching. Visionary Leadership Skills (1996), studies tools and skills necessary for “creating a world to which people want to belong.” Tools of the Spirit (with Robert McDonald, 1997), explores how NLP principles and processes may be used to encourage and enhance spiritual growth and development. Modeling with NLP (1998) covers the tools and skills for modeling the behavior of exceptional people, illustrating the application of NLP modeling procedures to the study of effective leadership ability. Sleight of Mouth (1999) describes the set of verbal reframing patterns he developed to conversationally influence beliefs. The Encyclopedia of Systemic Neuro-Linguistic Programming and NLP New Coding (with Judith DeLozier, 2000), provides a comprehensive overview of the field of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, including its wide range of applications, techniques and influences. Alpha Leadership: Tools for Business Leaders Who Want More From Life (with Ann Deering and Julian Russell, 2002) describes a new model of leadership that captures and shares the latest know-how on the practice of effective leadership, offering approaches to reduce stress and to promote satisfaction. Dilts’ most recent work From Coach to Awakener (2003) provides a road map and set of toolboxes for coaches to help clients to goals on a number of different levels of learning and change.
Recognized internationally as one of the foremost developers, trainers and practitioners of NLP, Mr. Dilts has done consulting and training throughout the world to a wide variety of professional groups and organizations. Past sponsors and clients include Apple Computer, Hewlett-Packard, The World Bank, Alitalia, Telecom Italia, Lucasfilms Ltd., Ernst & Young, The American Society for Training and Development, The University of Miami School of Medicine, and all of the major NLP institutes.

ISVOR DILTS provided a range of innovative leadership development programs to large corporations on a global scale. Dilts also headed a project with the State Railway of Italy involving organizational learning and communication skills for trainers, instructors and presenters. He has developed a certification program for NLP and systemic thinking skills for the management development group of IBM Europe, and supervised the design of Tools for Living, the behavior management portion of the program used by Weight Watcher’s International. Dilts is a co-developer (with his brother John Dilts) of the Success Factor Modeling TM process, a method to identify and transfer the critical success factors necessary to promote effective entrepreneurial activities within both new and traditional companies, by analyzing crucial patterns of business practices and behavioral skills used by successful individuals, teams and companies. The Dilts’ apply the Success Factor Modeling TM process through their consulting company, Dilts Strategy Group. The mission of the Dilts Strategy Group is to bring together proven business criteria with strategic knowledge, through the Success Factor Modeling TM process to support companies’ growth and development on many levels.

Dilts co-founded the Dynamic Learning Center with the late Todd Epstein. In 1991 He and Epstein (together with Judith DeLozier and Teresa Epstein) established NLP University, which provides a full range of basic and advanced NLP training. He and Epstein were also the founders of Dynamic Learning Publications and The Academy of Behavioral Technology. Dilts is also a co-founder (with Tim Hallbom and Suzi Smith) of the Institute for Advanced Studies of Health IASH maintains an international directory of certified NLP Health Practitioners. IASH is a non-profit organization, established in 1994, which supports research and networking relating to the application of Systemic NLP methods to the area of health.
As part of this mission, IASH provides administration for The NLP World Health Community and Health Certification Training. Dilts established Behavioral Engineering, a computer software company using NLP concepts to create interactive computer products for education, training and personal development. He is the author of over two dozen computer programs including Spelling Strategy and Math Strategy, Typing Strategy and Mind Master—a unique computer interface utilizing the electrical activity of the skin to allow the computer to respond to a person`s thought patterns.
The Mind Master was featured in two television documentaries on computer aid to the handicapped and an interactive theater production at Expo 86. Dilts is also the co-inventor of a unique biofeedback device known as the NeuroLink, which simultaneously monitors and records activity in heart rate, body temperature and the electrical activity on the left and right sides of the body.
Dilts’ State Enhancement Coach software combines these key measurements of nervous system activity with artificial intelligence and NLP methods and principles to help people achieve optimal states of health, learning and personal performance. The NeuroLink was the core technology for the MindDrive products marketed by The Other 90%. Dilts is a founder of the Global NLP Training and Consulting Community (GTC).
