Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Leading on from her previous two books on the subject of Neuro Linguistic Programming, Introducing NLP and NLP At Work, Sue Knight demonstrates how to model successful NLP solutions in business. Modelling, she says, is simply: "the process of observing, analysing and reproducing the structure of particular abilities, particularly excellence". So, whether you want to become a better speller, mountain cyclist, negotiator, or manager, the basis of NLP is to watch someone you know who excels at the skill you would like to possess and ask yourself "How do they do that?"

It sounds simple and on one level it is. Yet, to put oneself into a position to be able to, momentarily, detach oneself from a lifetime of experiences, beliefs and behaviour to recognise what it is that drives another person to behave the way they do, takes an immense shift in thinking. Anyone in business who has come across NLP will be hooked and are probably already modelling for themselves. If you have never heard of NLP, read this book. Before you finish it, you will have started modelling. Sue Knight has a talent for making complex issues straightforward. Her writing style is elegant in its simplicity and concise in its structure. She explains, using remarkably relevant anecdotes and examples, her introduction to and involvement in NLP, what is means and how to model. In Part Two she shows her reader how to apply NLP, in an immediate, practical way, to a variety of work situations, from building relationships, dealing with organisational change, high-performance coaching and leadership. If you want to get better at what you do at work, or you want your business to be the best in its related field, give yourself a break: start modelling NLP. NLP Solutions is as good as an off-site, week-long, personal development workshop--in fact, better. --Carey Green

Product Description

1.0 out of 5 stars All Smoke and Mirrors, 18 Aug 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: NLP Solutions: How to Model What Works in Business to Make it Work for You (People Skills for Professionals) (Paperback)

If this book "breaks new ground", I'm a Dutchman.
There is little enough of any substance, and what there is could by no stretch of the imagination be described as new.

Where Ms Knight's previous book, "NLP at Work", set itself modest targets - and achieved them, in a modest way, this book claims much more but offers rather less. It is indeed, all smoke an mirrors.

My first objection is the frequency with which the author tells us to read her previous boook in order to understand some point she is making (at least 15 times, then I gave up counting).
It seems to me that if the point needs making then ALL of the relevant information should be included there and then - not hinted at as a means of advertising another product.
Put this together with the regular references to her training business and the book begins to look like nothing so much as a giant advert.

Modelling, as a previous reviewer has rightly noted, is a key issue in NLP. It has been tackled by various writers, though only Roberts Dilts has (so far as I know) devoted an entire book to the subject. Given that Ms Knight has rather more of a flair for writing than RB it would be nice to say that she has made a significant contribution to the discussion.
Unfortunately the mass of anecdotes she offers really don't constitute anything like a sound introduction to the subject.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Victor Mature of books on NLP - well worth buying, 6 Oct 1999

Mrs. J. Finch (Derbyshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: NLP Solutions: How to Model What Works in Business to Make it Work for You (People Skills for Professionals) (Paperback)

Sue Knight has obviously has quite a journey since her first offering 'NLP at Work'. Her insights and views reflect someone for who NLP has permeated into the very fabric of who they are. You know that her opinions are based on more that intellectual knowledge, more wisdom gained from real experience. Readers learn not only about NLP, but also about Sue, which somehow gives the book a very personal dimension. I liked it for many reasons. Its very readable, either as a quick browse, or more serious contemplation. The book offers charming little 'thought-provokers' which can be sampled in moments. Alternatively, we can savor more considered views on areas such as rapport, relationships or models of change. New to NLP? - you'll learn lots. Think you've seen it all? - take a look, you'll be plesantly surpirsed.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you never buy another book, make sure you buy this one!, 18 Jan 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: NLP Solutions: How to Model What Works in Business to Make it Work for You (People Skills for Professionals) (Paperback)

I've just read NLP Solutions.If you never buy another book, make sure you buy this one. If you're serious about making a change in your life then this book can help you do it.Sue Knight has extraordinary insight into the issues facing us all, both in our business and personal lives and provides some brilliant thinking models to help us all reach our potential. But be warned, this stuff actually works, as a wiser man than me once said,"be careful what you ask for because you might get it."............ and you will!
