Neuro-linguistic programming

Analyzing this further, Grinder and Bandler stated that there were a few common traits such people – whether top therapists, top executives or top salespeople – all seemed to share:

1. Everything they did in their work, was pro-active (rather than reactive), directed moment to moment by well-formed outcomes ^[17] rather than formalized fixed beliefs
2. They were exceedingly flexible in approach and refused to be tied down to using their skills in any one fixed way of thinking or working ^{[18] [17]}
3. They were extremely aware moment by moment, of the non-verbal feedback (unconscious communication and metaphor) they were getting, and responded to it ^{[18] [17]} - usually in kind rather than by analyzing it ^[19]
4. They enjoyed the challenges of difficult ("resistant") clients, seeing them as a chance to learn rather than an intractable "problem"
5. They respected the client as someone doing the best they knew how (rather than judging them as "broken" or "working")
6. They had certain common skills and things they were aware of and noticed, intuitively "wired in" ^{[18] [20]}
7. They worked with great precision, purpose, and skill ^{[21] [20]}
8. They kept trying many many different things until they learned enough about the structure holding a problem in place to change it ^{[18] [17]}

We have found that there are three major patterns in the behavior of every therapeutic wizard we've talked to — and executives, and salespeople. The first one is to know what outcome you want. The second is that you need flexibility in your behavior. You need to be able to generate lots and lots of different behaviors to find out what responses you get. The third is you need to have enough sensory experience to notice when you get the responses that you want..."
