NLP Coaching: An Evidence Based Approach for Coaches, Leaders and Individuals

• What exactly is NLP coaching?

• What practices does it share with other approaches
and which are distinct to NLP?

• Is it a valid methodology?

NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is believed by many to be a powerful set of tools for facilitating change and enhancing performance. Yet, despite the success stories and proliferation of courses, there is still much skepticism about the validity and effectiveness of NLP.

In NLP Coaching Susie Linder-Pelz brings, for the first time, an evidence-based perspective to this coaching methodology. She explains how and where NLP coaching is used, examines its links to established principles and practices, and questions aspects of NLP where the empirical evidence is missing. She reviews recent developments in NLP-based coaching practice and proposes a specific research agenda that will move NLP coaching towards an evidence-based approach.

NLP Coaching provides numerous case studies and real-life examples which show how NLP assists personal, professional, team, leadership and organisational development. The book includes contributions from leaders in the field: Andrew Bryant, Michelle Duval, Joseph O'Connor, Paul Tosey and Lisa Wake. 

“Susie Linder-Pelz has explored NLP and the research which supports and challenges NLP thinking. An excellent book for the NLP coaching practitioner.”
Dr Jonathan Passmore, Director Coaching Psychology Unit, University of East London

“The book sets a mark in rock and it begs further development from the research community. It is unimaginable that anyone with an interest in the area of coaching known as ‘NLP coaching’ will not own, read and refer to this book in the years ahead. Susie writes fluidly and makes detailed research delightfully readable – the experience is almost like that of reading a good novel; masterful.”
Dr Angus I McLeod, author, international coach & trainer
