The Second Outline:
This Outline is consistent with Robert Dilts Modeling of Modeling and my own notes for Modeling (below)
Ability: Help people make changes
Facilitate opening people up
I initiate people in getting what they want
Like a flower opening
What I do: I know how to be with people in such a way they can make the changes to get what they want out of life
What’s Important…?
I be with people
I pay attention to what is going on from their point of view – going on for them
What evaluating?
Calibrating what they do and say, taking it all in
What tools can be applied…
Definition:
Being with people or coach them…
I get people with them
I connect with people
I listen
I try to get out of the way they process it…
Evidence:
See: focus on person in a particular way, minute physiological communications
Hear: how they say what they say in what order, sometimes I go peripheral, sounds in the room, etc.
Feel: connected, what they feel, sense of possibility, think they can change something like ‘hope’
Enabling Cause-Effect:
The philosophical background – people get to open to who they really are, Believe people can change,
Ablility to pay attention to minute physiological changes,
People return to what they started out to be, Belief they want to return, process of unearthing what is already there
What is necessary for someone to X?: [Enabling Cause-Effect]
They have to establish and maintain rapport, have ability to pace and lead.
Training – framework or how to lead someone from what doesn’t not work to what does
Curiosity – I don’t have to know what they mean
Why CRITERION important?: [Motivating Cause-Effect]
Get inside their feedback loop
You get possibility to change
3rd person
Leads to or makes possible?:
Things unfold, you know where to intervene
Inside: Being with people, connecting and evaluating
Outside: Maintain rapport, sometimes interpreting or clarifying
Normally do or usually doing when…?: Ask probing questions, mid section
Secondary Strategy: When ineffective or does not work?:
Always works, whatever happens is perfect and leads to outcome, sometimes outcome can change
Tools:
Signal Emotion:
They suggest themselves, come up, popping up, rise up, be with whatever emotion client is experiencing then lead them to somewhere else
[Strategy] May wait, timing, gap, after person has expressed themselves, when I see they are going off onto an old pattern, I may interrupt
Background emotion?:
That moving forward, sense of possibility, curiosity, confident can change, I care, I am for them
Do on outside: I pay attention, focus, do rapport skills, or I shift/pattern interrupt
Contributing factors:
I check at various points to make sure person is enrolled in change, must
Willing to change, I give permission to change and create safety for fully communication and change
