About the Trainers

Roger Deaner is an experienced Master Trainer of the human behavioural science Neuro-Linguistic Programming [NLP] and an endorsed trainer in the field of Spiral Dynamics-integral. Specialising in the teaching of NLP from first principles and general applications, Roger conducts trainings in Practitioner of NLP; Master Practitioner of NLP and Trainer of NLP. He is a certified Master Trainer of NLP and a Trainer Assessor for the NLPTRB, with a commitment to training others to become NLP Trainers. He learned NLP with Dr John Grinder, Richard Bandler, Marvin Oka, Wyat Woodsmall and Charlotte Bretto. He has also studied with Steven Gilligan, Robert Dilts, Steve Andreas, Humberto Maturana and Dr Don Beck and Chris Cowan.

Roger has a particular interest in teaching the applications of the combined disciplines of Neuro Linguistic Programming and Spiral Dynamics integral. For those who wish to take advantage of his background, Roger uses his insightful combination of new code and classic code NLP combining this with his detailed understanding of the work of Dr Clare Graves, Dr Don Beck and Chris Cowan, together with Ken Wilber, and the organisational model Spiral Dynamics-integral,  to design and conduct a range of courses for business. Through his business, Organisational Development Group, and in conjunction with his fellow directors, he offers his popular programs Management Dynamics and High Performance Selling; for small and medium business owners and managers, corporate managers and sales professionals; Training Dynamics is for teachers, trainers and public speakers; and Negotiating with Expertise for those wanting advanced negotiating skills. Integral Leadership is also available for select groups of CEO's and leaders on demand.

Associated with implementing change all his working life, Roger, as a research chemist piloted the use of new synthetic fibres in novel industrial, medical and apparel applications. His career as international trouble shooter and Divisional Managing Director for the multi-national corporate giant, Courtaulds Ltd involved implementing technological change to meet the demands of the mining and textile industries; and organisational change through mergers and acquisitions with various divisions. [Courtaulds is best known by brand names such as Taubmans, Razza Matazz, Hilton and Jansen] His success was largely due to his skills as a negotiator and his ability to train leaders to succeed him in each division.

 

His success both in his corporate career and today as a trainer and consultant is due to his skills as a negotiator and his ability to train leaders. His corporate career involved him in frequent dealings with upset and militant workforces intent upon achieving their social and political aims. More recently in his consulting to the mining and petrochemical industries he has been on call to dissolve disputes and to coach and advise negotiating teams who are handling Enterprise Bargaining Agreements (EBA) and his model for EBA Negotiations is in frequent use.

 

It is the skills of creating the inter-organisation relationships that are so needed by truly influential leaders and his consummate style as a teacher that Roger brings to those who attend his trainings. He maintains a current working knowledge of management practice through his membership of the CEO Institute. A true master of the technology he teaches, Roger now combines his distinguished business experience with an extensive corporate mentoring practice. He has an on-going interest in newly researched communication technologies which he incorporates into his work to provide outstanding trainings, mentoring and consultations. He offers a unique insight into the needs and drives of the corporate world advising business and community leaders.

 

 

Sean Healy specialises in relationship training and consulting. A certified Trainer of NLP, he consults to small to medium businesses primarily in aspects of personal development and has worked with the Wealth Management Division of ANZ, specifically looking at the working relationships within business teams. Currently Sean is involved in a ‘Peer Coaching’ initiative for teachers in a cluster of Department of Education schools. This work is being initiated and co-developed by colleague and co-trainer, Maree Jarrett, a teacher and fellow NLP trainer.

Sean draws on widespread experience. Starting as a fitness trainer before buying and managing his own gym, he was constantly intrigued by the behavioural and mental differences he noticed between champion and average athletes. He trained International and National celebrity athletes and dancers, working with their mental and emotional states as well as their physical fitness.  As well as members of the general public, Sean trained, up-skilled and developed celebrity singer songwriters, Miss Fitness Models and Masters Athletes [50+s].

 

Since 1999, Sean has been involved with personal consulting and business training and coaching, working with rural communities;  in out-reach programs;  and in situations calling for resolution of cultural clashes.  During this time he has discovered that it is the relationships people form within the community, at work, in a social context and personally that frequently have a great effect on their individual success. He focuses on helping clients prepare themselves for a desired, happier future by first completing with past, unsupportive and/or negative relationships.

 

He has consulted with trauma victims, anorexics and clinically depressed people, and he has conducted various trainings in relationship communication and NLP. It is his training in NLP and related technologies to which he owes his considerable success. Developer of the impressive relationship training, "Shaping Successful Relationships", Sean is in the process of authoring a book on this fascinating subject.

 

Sean has trained in NLP with John Grinder, Steve Andreas, Roger Deaner, and Chris and Jules Collingwood.  He is a much sought after NLP trainer and LeaderVision is privileged to welcome Sean Healy as their training partner. Over the next few years Sean will be taking the role of leading trainer at LeaderVision.
