After a successful maiden programme which took place in January, the organiser, Amazing-U, an image management consultancy and training company, is preparing for the second event and has joined forces with BrandTrendz and Kwikbrand, with the view to making the quarter two training more impactful.

NLP is an approach to communication, personal development and psychotherapy; it is the ultimate leadership, coaching and transformational programme offering a set of tools that allow you to have more influence and emotional mastery.

The author and renowned NLP Master/Trainer, Jessica Reed-Robbins, will lead the team from UK-based Reed-Robbins Performance Solutions which will be in Accra for two weeks to facilitate the courses.

There will be training in different aspects of NLP where participants will learn all its transformational tools such as the ability to use language in a skilled and precise way to influence people subconsciously.

Maiden training

The maiden training saw 19 delegates graduate with NLP Diploma and Practitioner certificates which were awarded by International Neuro-Linguistic Programming Trainers Associations (INLPTA) and American Board of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (ABNLP).

Out of the 19 who graduated, 15 of them are now certified to commence coaching in NLP.

Participants who acquired those skills in the maiden programme came from different professional disciplines and sectors, including human resources, project management, consulting, finance, energy, ministry and building construction.

Positive response

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Amazing-U, Ms Jennifer Agyeman, who is also an NLP Practitioner, said she brought NLP to Ghana to offer the opportunity for residents in Ghana/Africa to gain access to what successful people in the West had been enjoying and taking advantage of an understanding of how the human mind works as well as how to utilise it to achieve the outcomes they want.

A participant, Judith Blauwaert, explained that the programme had taught her how to find solutions to problems without antagonising people.

“With what I was expecting, I was looking to improve my relations with others and I have learnt a lot of things that will help me,” she said.
