NLP Book - NLP at Work by Sue Knight

NLPer Sue Knight has published the third edition of her book NLP at Work. So what is new about this edition?

Sue has been modelling Frank Farrelly, creator of Provocative Therapy, for several years. She now feels comfortable in presenting the way she and Frank work with Provocative Therapy and humour. She wants the book to help ensure Provocative Therapy gets the recognition it deserves.

Sue also believes David Grove (who sadly died suddenly in January 2008) deserves to be known the world over for his work with Clean Language and Metaphor.

Sue has introduced the work of Frank and David in the third edition of her book and, in particular, she seeks to demonstrate how their work can be incorporated into the way we all negotiate our way through the winding pathways of life.

Sue has also added a chapter about the impact of how we represent time and how we can use that representation to enrich our experience in the present.

Most importantly Sue wants to tell us how she now views the topics covered in the first two editions with the benefit of age, faith and experience. Sue says “I have appreciated applications and nuances that were limited by my immaturity when I wrote that first draft all those years ago.”

In her comments about the new edition Sue acknowledges the changes in the world and increased alarm for the future of the planet and reflects on the only certainties in the world - uncertainty and mortality. Sue believes NLP has given her a means to live with both. Sue says “If I were to prioritise the learning that I encourage in my students, it is the ability to embrace a state of unknowing, to live in the present and to open themselves with every pore of their body to feedback.”
