NLP RAPPORT SKILLS WORKSHOP

Available as an in-house workshop for groups, organisations and the business sector.

OBJECTIVES
Learn the skills and knowledge required to establish, maintain, deepen and break rapport. Learn how to influence an individual or a group towards agreement.

WHAT IS RAPPORT?
Rapport is the establishment of trust and harmony in a relationship. It is the key element in the art of obtaining the support and co-operation of other people. 93% of communication is transmitted by your body language and the way that you speak (analogue communication). Only 7% of the message is carried by the words (digital communication). Most of the time your analogue communication is unconscious. By developing an ability to work at both the conscious and unconscious levels of communication, you will learn how to establish deeper rapport and build trust and harmony - with virtually anyone, in a much shorter time frame.

APPLICATIONS
The ability to establish and break rapport is an essential life skill, especially for professional communicators or those in business. Rapport is step #1 in every form of communication. Without rapport other forms of coercion are required to bring another person or group to agreement.

Most of us are able to establish rapport with certain types of people but a master communicator has the ability to establish rapport with a wider range of people.

Rapport skills may be used by an individual or a group of negotiators to tilt the outcome (manipulate) of a negotiation in their favour. As such, in order to defend yourself against manipulation by unscrupulous people or organisations (or just more skillful communicators than yourself), you need the ability to recognise how the rapport is shifting between yourself and the other.

High level rapport skills are an essential requirement for:

• Sales people.
• Marketers.
• Management.
• Promoters.
• Negotiators and mediators.
• Trainers and educators.
• Job seekers and employees.
• Anyone in business.
• Partners in love.
• Partners in business.
• Health care professionals.
