Just checking ....

Roger,

I don't think anyone suggested that TA was a predecessor to NLP although I did ask if anyone remembered TA, another fad that seems to have sunk without a trace. And given that NLP dates back to the 1970s it can hardly be called 'brand new', surely?

However, I digress.

Can you just clarify a couple of items. You say you have been using NLP for about a year but that you will never (get) want everyone using it and that the results might be unfavourable if you did. This seems a bit contradictory. Can you clarify?

You give an example of NLP in association with assertiveness. What was wrong with the initial approach to assertiveness that it should need an NLP graft? Assertiveness is another 'fad' but is actually one that can be used to develop insight and bring about behavioural change.

Thanks
