Robert Dilts – Sleight of Mouth The Magic Of Conversational Belief Change

Robert Dilts – Sleight of Mouth The Magic Of Conversational Belief ChangeSleight of Mouth works with language patterns and, most particularly, with spoken language patterns. Language is one of the key representational systems from which we build our mental models of the world, and has a tremendous influence upon how we perceive and respond to the world around us. Meanwhile, Robert Dilts is a sublime practitioner of his own techniques mostly because of his own personal warmth and his direct and uncomplicated interactions with people. This book, therefore, is to Dilts’ practice of NLP as any recipe book is to the practice of cooking, serving and eating delicious food. Certainly, the recipe is there, and all of the ingredients are described, but there is nothing of the flavour, the aroma, the atmosphere or the human vitality that lie at the heart of these skills. When sleight of mouth works best, it is because the internal logic of the subject’s statements are working against their own self interest, and I have seen and heard Robert Dilts respond to such statements by the inverting the logic to operate FOR the subjects self-interest and returning it as a question (an offering) to the subject. What is striking about such an interaction is not so much the linguistic skill of the man (which is impressive) but his compassion his ability to recognise, in a very short sentence, how someone can be helped to help themselves. You don’t find that in the book.If you are into NLP in a big way then this is more or less a MUST READ. It is far from the easy “do it yourself” style that you get from the likes of Tony Robbins (who is also good but in a different way) it is aimed as NLP Master practitioner level readers. It’s full of great explanations and examples. I recommend reading it a few thousand times. As an NLP coach, I find the slight of mouth patterns a huge help in my sessions.

It involves drawing out people’s strengths, helping them to bypass personal barriers and limits in order to achieve their personal best, and facilitating them to function more effectively as members of a team.Thus, effective coaching requires an emphasis on both task and relationship.” Seeing coaching as more outcome-oriented than problem-oriented, Dilts sees coaches emphasizing change while concentrating on defining and achieving specific goals.Dilts identifies two forms of coaching – executive coaching and life coaching (referred to as capital “C” ).
