This book aims to take the complex terminology and techniques of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and turn them into practical strategies for teachers working at the chalkface.
The book offers advice and activities to alter behaviour and attitudes, with a number of original ideas.
The authors themselves say in their introduction that they are aiming to help teachers "bit the challenging mark of interpersonal and intrapersonal effectiveness".
The pair are speaking from experience as well, having taught NLP approaches to more than 1,000 teachers and school leaders in the past four years.
The book covers a lot of ground, looking at how to build rapport, thinking effectively, positive rewards, words to use with care, motivation, and paying attention to body language to name but a few topics.
The advice is backed up with fully-referenced research, top tip boxes and advice on where to begin when it comes to applying the techniques you are reading about. There is also a useful glossary common NLP terms.
The layout and design makes what could be a tough subject matter easy to read and digest.
