LAB Profile
Practitioner Certification

LAB Profile is a development of NLP Meta Programs, first described by Leslie Cameron-Bandler in the 1970’s and refined early 1980’s for the business setting by Roger Bailey. Meta Programs are the ways in which we filter our experience. At its roots is Noam Chomsky’s PhD 1957 dissertation on Transformational Grammar which has become a specialisation in the field of linguistics.

During persons experience, he or she gathers volumes of information somewhere in their body. When that information is related to others they only pass on 1% or 2% of the experience. Transformational Grammar is the study of how linguistically these experiences are reduced to a “map” of the experience. When we communicate with each other, certain words indicate the nature of this map. It reveals some of the ways in which we think in a certain context and how we make sense of certain experiences in that context.
LAB profile allows you to become more aware of these insights and how you can match the style in your response and other forms of communication. These indicators form a language pattern that can be predictors of certain behaviours in a given context.
By utilising the other person’s language patterns, your message will have greater influence and will be more compelling. 

LAB Profile can become a major part of your career development or business. Participating in this workshop will furnish participants with a valuable foundation for attending the ten day Consultant and Trainer certification programme, run by Shelle Rose Charvet, author of the book Words That Changes Minds.

"If we take the simplest words that occur constantly in speech
and endeavour to analyze the meaning given to them,
we shall see at once that, at every moment of his life,
every man puts into each word a special meaning
which another man can never put into it or suspect"
G. I. Gurdjieff from P.D Ouspensky's
