Gauged Solutions NLP Diploma Safety Coaching And Behavioural Safety

Glenn Ridsdale

A formal qualification that enhances the “management toolbox” of any business manager,supervisor or safety professional.

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a name that encompasses the three most influential components involved in producing human experience: neurology, language and programming. The neurological system regulates how our bodies function, language determines how we interface and communicate with other people and our programming determines the kinds of models of the world we create. Neuro-Linguistic Programming describes the fundamental dynamics between mind (neuro) and language (linguistic) and how their interplay affects our body and behaviour (programming). 

NLP is a pragmatic school of thought - an 'epistemology' - that addresses the many levels involved in being human. NLP is a multi-dimensional process that involves the development of behavioural competence and flexibility, but also involves strategic thinking and an understanding of the mental and cognitive processes behind behaviour. NLP provides tools and skills for the development of states of individual excellence, but it also establishes a system of empowering beliefs and presuppositions about what human beings are what communication is and what the process of change is all about. At another level, NLP is about self-discovery, exploring identity and mission. It also provides a framework for understanding and relating to the 'spiritual' part of human experience that reaches beyond us as individuals to our family, community and global systems. NLP is not only about competence and excellence; it is about wisdom and vision.

Gauged Solutions have developed an NLP diploma that brings together many of the components of NLP, and looks at how business leaders and safety professionals can use it in a way to help shape habitual safe behaviours in the workplace.

The course includes:

  • Creating a coaching culture
  • Understanding the role of leadership in safety
  • Understanding human error and violations
  • Identifying effective interpersonal transactions
  • Developing communication, coaching and leadership skills
  • Giving and receiving feedback
  • Rapport building
  • Effective influencing of individuals
  • Understanding consequence management

There is a project to be completed at the end of the programme that invites delegates to use NLP in the workplace and report on the impact that it has had.
