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

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

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.

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

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent., 27 Jan 2001
By danroz@mailroom.com (Worthing, West Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
As with her previous book "NLP at Work", Sue Knight in "NLP Solutions" offers insightful, challenging, but practical help in creating personal change for yourself and enhanced relationships with others.

The book is written in a balanced and elegant way, containing some great thinking models, anecdotes, examples and reveals some of Sue Kinght's personal journey as well. There are so many good things to recomend in this book, but if I were to pick one; it would be that it is completely jargon free and written in such an encouraging way that it ensures that once you have picked it up you will come back to it again and again. This means I have been able to recomend it to friends unfamilar with NLP and colleagues at work who certainly are, and yet the feedback is always the same, in that the book has been of practical help to them.

One final thing to add, would be that in the past I have attended one of Sue Knight's public programmes and have found that she models what she writes, which for me makes the book all that more authentic.
