NLP Presuppositions
The NLP Presuppositions are not considered "truths"
by NLP practitioners, but they are considered more
"useful" than other paradigms. They include the
following ideas which you may or may not agree can be useful to a
person in the position of leadership:
- The map is not the territory.
- Each person's unique model of the world is equally valid.
- You cannot not communicate, and the meaning of your communication is in the response you get.
- There is no failure, only feedback.
- You are not your behavior. Accept the person, change the behavior.
- People have all the resources they need to succeed. There are no unresourceful people, only unresourceful states.
- People are doing the best they can with the resources they have available.
- The part of any system which has the most flexibility controls the system (Ashby's Law of Requisite Variety).
- Every behavior has a positive intention; all behavior is appropriate in some context.
- All interventions should increase choice.
- What others can do, anyone can learn.
