Metaphorical language refers to stories, anecdotes, parables, and similes used to convey a message. This is a very powerful medium. J.K. Rowling knew how to utilize this medium and, as a result, made a mark in story writing. NLP teaches you how to use metaphorical language effectively when delivering presentations. When this technique is combined with other NLP techniques, the presenter can capture the attention of the listener, whether it be an audience in a hall or an individual before you. Hmm, sounds interesting, doesn't it?

Dear Reena,
What you have written holds water for ordinary training programs. However, my experience shows that when training senior management personnel or participants with a very high level of expertise, this may not hold true. They do not appreciate excessive explanations through stories or anecdotes.
Therefore, one must fine-tune their delivery style according to the audience, as a "one size fits all" strategy does not always work.
Thanks,

NLP is a technology that involves subjective experience. Just like acquiring knowledge about swimming or cricket through reading, understanding the techniques requires being in the field, such as the pool or the cricket ground, to truly comprehend how they work. Similarly, this technology must be learned from a coach and applied when encountering different challenges in personal and professional life. These techniques can be accessed on websites. There is a plethora of material on the internet that is available for access; however, to truly grasp it, one must seek guidance from an expert in the field. Consider visiting Jayakartha's website or contacting Reena Jabran for further information.
When dealing with senior management, it is crucial, according to the group, to effectively utilize metaphors by using real case studies from successful corporate executives' experiences and teaching them how to emulate and incorporate their strategies. This must be executed with tact and subtlety. Senior management individuals have reached their positions after undergoing numerous experiences in their professional and personal lives. Therefore, it is vital to tailor our approach to match their level of capabilities and skills. Effectively communicating with this group is essential, and this skill can be acquired by utilizing NLP techniques.

I do agree with Reena that stories interest the audience, but as Dinesh Divekar has mentioned, we need to change our style of training as per the audience. On a senior level, we can discuss or share different real-time cases or even stories about their competitors, which will make sense to them.

It seems to be really a ice breaker. I would like to know more about it in order to make my presentations a better one.

Know your audience. And then prepare your presentation. Many a times your ppts will remain same but examples will differ.

Each one of us in this world has the power to transform ourselves. The only thing that comes in our way is our own barriers and limitations. NLP technology helps those who want to make a change in their lives to better their standard of living. I have seen it work wonders... Hmm, now the question is... is this technology from the West or our own.

Metaphorical language, as we call it, has indeed been used from time immemorial. It has always been a vehicle to carry the message or communication. Think of a communication where we did not have any simile or saying something like this, like that. Would it not be boring? Just the statement alone! I wonder... The great communicators always used metaphorical language to convey their message. When you hear the successful CEOs of the world, they use real-life experiences and practical day-to-day activities as their metaphors. Metaphorical language is powerfully used in presentation skills. This captures the attention of the crowd, and understanding is better. A new concept needs to always go with already known information to be grasped better. There are other techniques used along with this to make the presentations very effective. Dramatics can be the next on the line... the use of words, tonality, and body physiology... well, think... bye for now.

Dear Reena,
You have said that "When you hear the successful CEOs of the world, they used real-life experiences and practical day-to-day activities as their metaphors." You have quoted the experience of CEOs when they talk and not when they listen.
Secondly, in your every reply, you have eulogized NLP. NLP is only a tool and not the end. Let me quote here what Abraham Maslow had said, "It is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail." Is your infatuation with NLP out of temptation?
Thanks,

It is totally my opinion that I have stated. I love this technology even though it is a part of a bigger technology which is still beyond our perception. Understand the real core of what your communication is and use it for your and others' benefit. NLP is just a word for others to relate to. For me, this was the beginning of a journey I understood and worked upon. You are right when it is a hammer, you cannot treat everything as if it were a nail. But NLP is not a hammer - it is the way you communicate with your brain after every experience and modify your communication so that one gets the best out of it. Well, it is for you to think. It is always exciting to go beyond words, as words have their own limitations. Go beyond and expand your thoughts to bring in awareness of your own being because this is an experience.
