A great Holiday Read, 18 July 2002
This review is from: NLP at Work: The Difference that Makes a Difference in Business (Paperback)
A great holiday read!, July 18, 2002
Reviewer: Mrs Mary Baxter (see more about me) from Watlington, United Kingdom
I took this book on holiday with me and when I picked it up for a quick flick through I was amazed that I couldn't put it down! The only problem was that I was constantly drawn into the book by wonderful revelations about how to improve your personal effectiveness and there is so much in the book that deserves really thorough study, like the "thought provokers" at the end of each chapter. It will take me a long time before I have really extracted all the goodness from this remarkably accessible book.
NLP at Work is delightfully free of jargon. The style and language Sue uses are very attractive, and an excellent example of how to deliver messages effectively. She illustrates points with mini real life case studies. The stories which punctuate the book are delightful in themselves, but also rich in wisdom and wonderful catalysts to greater understanding.
Sue invites the reader to explore their heart's desire, and to understand that whatever they desire, they are capable of achieving. "What you think is what you get." Achieving potential, both one's own, and that of those around us, is a very attractive proposition. Sue leads the reader through a wonderful journey of exploration. She helps us to understand ourselves and our own individual map of the world in a new way. She shows us to be more effective in our business and personal lives. She helps us to acknowledge our own true values, and to ensure that our lives are in harmony with them.
NLP at work is satisfyingly well constructed and laid out. It is delightfully surprising and entertaining, and it is deeply rewarding and helpful to anyone wanting to learn and grow.

it's a good book that just got better, 24 July 2002
This review is from: NLP at Work: The Difference that Makes a Difference in Business (Paperback)
I like the updated version of the book very much. Sue's style makes for both an easy and engaging read. The book is really comprehensive, covers all the key NLP topics, with a few new ones added. In particular, I like the new hypnotic language chapter - it's powerful stuff!. I like the way you can dip in and out of areas and it still makes sense. Plus the stories, thought-provokers and various quotes etc. make it a much more enjoyable read.

Great book about NLP in business, 14 Sep 2004
This review is from: NLP at Work: The Difference that Makes a Difference in Business (Paperback)
Very clear and well-structured overview of NLP as it applies to business. Sue is a UK-based trainer and consultant with a long track record in business.
Her book is great on the importance of integrity and congruence in organisations, and on how to use sensory-rich language in corporate communications. I also found this book useful in my work in brand positioning a few years ago, before I became a full-time NLP trainer and executive coach.
