NOT SO LONG AGO, PEOPLE WERE
SELECTED FOR LEADERSHIP and management positions largely on the basis of their
technical abilities. Now, increasingly, it is an individual's softer skills
that mark them out for success in these roles. In a recent study into the
factors that create outstanding work performance, Harvard University's Dr
Daniel Goleman discovered, after analysing data from over 100 different
companies, that a manager's ability to display a high awareness of others'
needs and preferences and then powerfully influence and effectively communicate
with them is twice as important in as their IQ and technical skills combined.
This growing appreciation of the need
for soft skills has led to a surge in demand for training methods that can
develop managers' ability to understand, involve and inspire their staff. And,
of the many different soft skills training options available, more and more
employers are turning to NLP, a method that has been turbo-charging people's
goal-achieving, influencing and communication skills across a range of
industries for over 30 years.
