Hypnotic Language Masterclass by Tony Burgess *New Date*
October 9, 2008 at 11:34 am | In Business Advice, Events | Leave a CommentTags: Coaches, Coaching, Hypnotic Language, Hypnotic Language Training, Personal Development, Personal Influence, Speakers, Trainers, Training, Training and Development
Now is your chance to book yourself onto the new date just announced and put a stop to those unintended disruptive hypnotic conversations and start to harness the true power of language for good instead!
“Now you can learn quickly and easily ‘How to Integrate Hypnotic Language into Your Positive Change-Work’ and start to make an even bigger difference that really counts. Take action now. Grab this opportunity to take your language skills to the next level!”
This unique course helps you to tap into and ethically apply the secret hypnotic language patterns that will put you streets ahead of most other coaches, trainers and change-facilitators!
Our friend and partner Tony Burgess has a degree in psychology and has focused the last 14 years on helping people to thrive in their endeavors by teaching them powerful ‘mental fitness’ techniques and offering them super-effective connection and communication tools.
This master class is for you if you are a coach, trainer, professional speaker or change-facilitator and have not yet fully harnessed the full potential positive power of everyday hypnosis and you are not alone!
Although many comprehensive training programmes out there give you lots of skills and models and a number of useful frameworks for facilitating change and positively influencing people, most of them do not even touch on the hypnotic language patterns that can help you to maximise the effectiveness of your ‘live’ communications, moment by moment!
This is why so many well-intentioned and experienced coaches, trainers and speakers are inadvertently hypnotizing their clients in haphazard and potentially disruptive ways.
The truth is, without an awareness of the inherent power of the hidden hypnotic patterns that are part and parcel of every conversation that you ever have, you are at best…
…making your communications more ‘hit and miss’ than you would like them to be!
…and at worst you are…getting in the way of your client’s progress.
We have noticed that this ‘unintended disruption’ to clients’ progress through a simple lack of knowledge and awareness of how language really works is something that many responsible change facilitators act to eradicate when given the opportunity to learn how to do so.
For years we have been helping coaches, trainers, professional speakers and other change-facilitators to put crucial language tools into their tool boxes to help make them as effective in their influencing activities as possible. We also help them to become masters at using those tools – enabling them to craft their communications to match the specific needs of the person(s) they are supporting or positively influencing.
We receive a range of comments from change-facilitators when we ask them how well they are currently harnessing the power of everyday hypnotic language within their influencing conversations.
So how can you begin…
…to turn all of your haphazard and potentially disruptive hypnotic communications into purposeful and aligned interactions which will consistently serve both you and your clients to make an even greater positive difference out there in the world?
It all starts with a decision…
A decision to be the best coach, trainer, speaker or change facilitator that you can be. Then comes the awareness. The more aware you are of the detail and the power of the hypnotic language patterns, the more you can begin to notice how you can harness them for good. Finally the application. The more you playfully practise using the language patterns in a safe supportive environment and in increasingly elegant combinations, the more influencing power you will adopt.
All of this is available in our one-day language masterclass…
“How to Integrate Hypnotic Language Patterns into Your Positive Change-Work”
This one-day success seminar is the quickest and easiest way to learn how to integrate Hypnotic Language into your existing change-facilitation practices. You will get lots of clear and practical input from us, personalised to your own needs and roles.
What you’ll learn…
• Why a detailed understanding of the secret hypnotic language patterns is crucial for every outcome focused coach, trainer, speaker and change-facilitator
• How you are currently haphazardly hypnotizing people in every conversation that you have and how potentially disruptive that can be to your intended outcome of supporting or influencing positive change
• The core attitudes and beliefs that underpin ethical use of the powerful hypnotic language secrets
• What are the key hypnotic language secrets that have served great influencers across the ages.
• How to harness each pattern and how to integrate them with your current effective practices
• How and when to use each pattern naturally in conversation and how each pattern can influence the thoughts, beliefs and actions of the listener(s)
• The huge benefits of gradually and playfully weaving together the different language patterns into streams of powerful communications that really make a difference.
• How to become increasingly elegant in your use of super-effective hypnotic language
…and much more besides!
So are you ready to join us for this special one-day masterclass, jam-packed with ‘Aha! moments’?
This one-day workshop will be taking place on Wednesday 3rd December 2008 from 9.30am to 5pm at a venue in Staffordshire.
Places are limited so be sure to book your place early and early bird booking discounts are available.
To find out more or to book your place email info@communicate4.co.uk or call 08443 577 222.
NLP Practitioner 7 Day Residential – 17th– 24th November 2008
October 8, 2008 at 10:19 am | In Business Advice, Events | Leave a CommentTags: 7 day ResidentialS, Glastonbury, Julie French, NLP, NLP Practitioner Course, NLP Training, Tony Burgess
Help people get more of the results and outcomes they want more quickly, more consistently and more effectively! (Includes NLP Practitioner Certification)
This programme is unlike anything you will find anywhere else on the planet!
Magical training for groups of up to 8 participants!
Our Communicate4 Partners Julie French and Tony Burgess have total commitment to providing you with an exceptionally high quality experience, in which you will live, breathe and appreciate the power of NLP and more. A truly special and life-enhancing programme!
When you choose this NLP Training, you are choosing a life-enriching experience that you can only just begin to imagine now.
It has repeatedly become very clear to us that although people invest in our training very readily, they are usually unaware of just how much of a positive impact it is going have until they actually arrive and begin to experience it.
Julie and Tony have already delivered three ‘open’ programmes in 2008 and our fourth 7 Day Residential this year takes place on the 17th November to 24th November at a special venue in Glastonbury.
Julie and Tony carefully select residential venues to create that perfect atmosphere for your learning and development…Imagine having all your needs catered for from the moment you arrive until the moment that you leave, so you can simply focus on enjoying and engaging with the learning experience. We think you deserve to be looked after well whilst you train!
Some of the key factors that enrich your learning experience so significantly include the following:
• Small Groups
We insist on training only small groups of delegates (usually a max of 8 people) which means that you get maximum attention from us as your trainers.
• Accelerated Learning
The way we train and coach you really accelerates your learning by operating at both conscious and unconscious levels of processing and by the time you depart you will be a shining example of NLP excellence.
• Clear, Practical and Super-Simple
We provide a unique, clear, practical and super-simple conceptual model through which you can apply all of your change tools (existing and new) to effect positive change effortlessly and reliably, whatever it is that your clients want to achieve.
• No Jargon
We keep out of the unnecessary jargon that often goes with teaching models and methods for facilitating change. We know that helping you to shine as the outstanding facilitator of change that you can be, is about helping you to ‘perform’ super-effectively rather than helping you to use fancy terms.
• Powerful
We teach you to be able to work ‘content-free’ (hence the reference to ‘blindfolded’ at the top of the page). What we mean by this is that you will become skilled at helping people to make massive progress even when you don’t know what it is that they actually want to achieve (only the clients themselves need to know what they want in order for you to help them massively). This is so powerful. By being able to offer content-free support, you can keep the change process ‘pure’, freeing the clients own solutions and resources to move forward effectively. Being able to operate in this way makes you a change facilitator that can operate at a level that is head and shoulders above the level at which most are operating.
• Free Lifetime Support
When you graduate from the programme, you will be personally supported by us for FREE for your whole lifetime (or at least for as long as we are alive and well enough to support you), as you become part of the Academy’s treasured ‘family’.
To find out more or to book your 7 day NLP Practitioner Residential email us on info@communicate4.co.uk or call us on 08443 577 222
We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Stafford Ecademy, Thursday 16th October 2008
October 6, 2008 at 4:26 pm | In Business Advice, Events | Leave a CommentTags: Business Advice, communicate4 partner, Jane Keogh, Networking, Partners, Stafford Business Event, Stoke-on-Trent Business Event, Tony Altham
Our partners Julie French and Tony Burgess from The Academy of High Achievers are pleased to announce details of their next Ecademy – ‘The place for networking, connecting and experiencing great business presentations in Staffordshire’
The meeting will take place on Thursday 16th October at The Stone House Hotel, Stone, ST15 0BQ from 7p.m to approx. 9.45 p.m.
This month’s event will bring two inspiring presenters:
Firstly, Tony Altham with his presentation ‘SOS Networking’, ‘Secrets of Successful Networking’ draws from his own experience in changing careers in the difficult early 1990’s he started his own company and watched, listened and learned from the best social and business communicators to hone into what makes them highly effective networkers.
In his presentation ‘SOS Networking’ Tony shares exactly what he has learned that makes effective Networking such a key ingredient in business success.
The second guest is Jane Keogh with ‘Who’s Life is it Anyway?’. This is a presentation that touches on attitudes and choices, and how by becoming truly centred, anyone can have crystal clear vision and purpose.
Jane is a successful business woman running many businesses in a wide array of sectors and from her experience she noticed that self doubt, limiting beliefs and that ‘little voice’ can really get in the way. Jane has become increasingly passionate about personal development and how it works in achieving business and life goals and to those ends she is now a coach and Master NLP Practitioner.
All this and for just £10 on the door! Money well spent and all proceeds over running costs go to charity!
Bring along plenty of business cards and any samples or information you have about your business or organisation, it won’t be wasted!
