Persuasion

By Peter Backx | Published: December 20, 2007

I’ve always associated Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) with guys trying to get girls in bed. I’m sure that sort-of gives you an impression of what I’ve been reading, probably a bad impression. But today, I was surprised to hear it mention in a totally different context, namely People management and Personal development. I always thought it was just a technique to convince people, usually against their better judgement. But it appears to be much broader then that.
So my interest is piqued. It doesn’t take much, I know, but now I have another item on my actions list (Getting Things Done, another religion for the 21th century).

If you liked this, why not share it with your friends?
