Course ID: HI5BBA
Business Brain NLP & HI Practitioner
Learning Objectives
- Evaluate and identify their own thinking patterns, values, limiting beliefs and communication filters, using NLP models such as Logical Levels and the Communication Model to strengthen their self-clarity and executive presence.
- Apply state management techniques, including anchoring and mindfulness practices, to stay composed under pressure, recover from setbacks and respond deliberately rather than react.
- Use precision questioning and structured problem-solving tools, including the Meta Model, SCORE and the Disney Strategy, to challenge assumptions, diagnose root causes and formulate well-formed outcomes.
- Assess and build rapport and trust with clients, colleagues and stakeholders, using calibration, active listening and influential language to resolve conflict and gain ethical agreement.
- Evaluate and lead individuals and teams through change and uncertainty, applying reframing, timeline and behaviour-change techniques to build resilient, high-performing cultures.
Major Topics
- A recognised qualification: graduate with the Business Brain NLP and HI Practitioner Certification, earned through evidence rather than attendance alone.
- 12 live sessions across six modules: each module has a 7-hour live day with Oliver Thompson, combining the science and models with practical workouts.
- Around 90 hours of guided learning: 42 of those hours are live, taken over 6 or 12 months to suit your pace.
- Hands-on coaching practice: Coaching Labs in small groups of three (coach, client, observer), plus at least 20 hours of real client coaching with structured feedback.
- One-to-one mentoring: six personal mentor sessions reviewing your progress, workbook and client work.
- Book, app and coaching combined: includes How to Train Your Business Brain and full access to the Business Brain App for daily micro-habits and 20+ research-based personal results.
- Two pathways: Independent Coach (building your own practice) or Coach in Business (for leaders, HR, L&D and internal coaches), each ending in a practical business deliverable.
- Built 100% for business: NLP, neuroscience and mindfulness applied to leadership, sales and service roles.
- Flexible start: two intakes a year, in January and July.
