From NLP Practitioner and NLP Master Practitioner Courses

"I wanted to update you on the results that we are seeing from the NLP training that we have done with LeaderVision.

 To date our involvement with you has been attendance at the Practitioner of NLP program and the short course, Training Dynamics. We are now observing the following bottom line results in the APJ Consulting & Integration Unit of Hewlett-Packard:

• A dramatic reduction in the time it is taking us to win business - we are now capable of halving the selling time in many cases and increasing the depth of our engagement with our clients.
• The number of invitations we get from our client to come back in and bid for further work has increased noticeably. We are putting into practice skills which have moved us from a company previously seen as interested only in transacting business to being viewed as a company interested in building value adding relationships.
• The frameworks and approaches from both above classes are helping us better facilitate client meetings and bring to the surface their real needs that then form the foundation of all services we provide to them. This has resulted in increasing levels of client trust and we are now working at a higher level than we have in the past.

In summary, we have tripled the amount of new projects with clients and our credibility with the executive level management has soared. I highly recommend the NLP training for those who want to be successful in management communication, large complex project work, training design and delivery and the many other applications of NLP available in business and generally." Jay Patel, APJ Consulting & Integration, Hewlett-Packard Company

I think that Neuro Linguistic Programming as a set of tools and skills should be a requirement for anyone dealing with peoples health – body, mind or spirit. Practitioners from any field will benefit from the skills and insights taught by Roger Deaner. To learn NLP so that you can have the best results then it pays to learn it from the best and Roger's witty style and powerful delivery make him an exquisite Master Trainer, an amazing presenter and teacher. Dr Shady Botros, Chiropractor.

“Since becoming a Master Practitioner of NLP, I have been able to expand and accelerate achievement of my goals and outcomes. Life has become more interesting, challenging, rewarding and easier. My choices in dealing with life (work, family, self, etc) are now limitless. I have discovered that what happens in my life is dependent on my own flexibility and the choices I make.

“Becoming a Master Practitioner of NLP has provided me with the skills, techniques and patterns to develop that flexibility and to recognise and model excellence in others that are useful to me in my life. LeaderVision trainers, Roger Deaner and Barbara Wait, provided me with a safe environment to explore how I do what I do and to
experiment with my values and identity. I highly recommend taking this next step for anyone who is interested in NLP, in other people or who really want to take charge of their life."  Maree Burgess, Internal Influence-Business Training and Coaching

“I was inspired to study NLP when I first saw a student of Roger's demonstrate dramatically improved negotiating skills after attending coaching sessions. I attended short courses and Practitioner of NLP which were useful and interesting, however it was when I completed the Master Practitioner program, that the power of this field of practice really came to fruition.
"What Master Practitioner did for me was bring all of the skills learnt in earlier courses together effectively. However, by far the greater benefit was that Master Practitioner taught the core skills of NLP that showed how NLP can be applied with precision and excellence in any situation. I have no hesitation in recommending trainings run by LeaderVision to my staff and to my colleagues.”               Darren Fooks, Partner, Leading Australian Law Firm

"People have been referred to as the human equivalent of a computer system. Computers have gone from using disks to Cd’s & Dvd’s. Technology has moved from sending letters, to faxes, to email & internet. Attending a training with LeaderVision and Roger Deaner is like having a personal systems upgrade.

"Once upon a time in business we could get by with clunky, ill fitting, antiquated systems. Having an integrated system that hums along smoothly and quickly with enhanced features provides a competitive advantage in today’s environment. Thanks for the 'personal systems upgrade' Roger. The skills continue to serve me well in both a personal and professional capacity." Fletcher Searle, financially independent entrepreneur.

“Advanced rapport building skills learned in only the first four days of Practitioner training enabled me to gather strategic information from a client in advance of our competitors. As a result, we are projecting an extra $150,000 per year for the next 5 years.” Doug Mealy, Southern Region District Manager, Semiconductor Division, Texas Instruments Australia Ltd

“The skills I have obtained from attending the NLP Practitioner Certification Program with Roger Deaner have been fundamental in our achieving major increases in sales and profits which have now climbed from an original $1.2 million to over $10 million in under 5 years, and also in my ability to cope with this degree of unanticipated success so early in our business. I believe this program is essential to anyone intending to be an industry leader at this critical time.” Brian Power, Joint Managing Director, Realtek Pty Ltd

“Doing the NLP Practitioner Certification Program with Roger Deaner has profoundly changed both my personal and my professional life. The skills and techniques I’ve learned have helped improve the quality of my presentations and of my business consultations more than any other single factor over the last ten years. Nothing that I previously knew about NLP could have prepared me for the impact of this training. You have to do it in order to comprehend fully just how powerful this stuff really is.” Wayne Berry, CEO Top Gun Business Academy

“Understanding how people design their reality and knowing how beliefs and values can determine the state of someone’s health has meant that I can now have even more effect on, and be of even greater benefit to my patients. People whose beliefs were preventing them from getting well are now healing.” Lisa Lovett, Chiropractor
