NLP Techniques - Logical Levels



Logical Levels can be used as an approach to explore any outcome. This may in itself produce a congruent way forward for your client or it will give information of where to go next.

Logical levels can also be used a 'top level' approach to modelling someone's attitude and skills in a particular context - again either giving you some distinctions to improve performance or suggesting what you investigate next

Logical Levels - What's important

When using logical levels to explore an outcome it's normally worth asking the client if they want to start at 'environment' or 'identity'.

Where ever they start take them through the steps and then take them back to the starting point, on the return stage 'what, however small, has changed.

Logical Levels - The technique

Remember to check you have a reasonable level of rapport before you start you may find it useful to frame the meeting with a statement like when Ive modeled successful people in the past, Ive found the questions Im about to ask really useful - if they dont make sense, thats fine just use them as a trigger to say what comes into your mind. And I may ask similar sounding questions, its to give you a chance to build on what you have said already

Environment

Where and when do you do it?

Behaviours

What specifically do you do?

If you were going to teach me to do it, what would you ask me to do?

Capabilities

What skills do you have that enable you to do this?

How did you learn how to do this?

Beliefs

What do you believe about yourself when you do this?

What do you believe about the person youre doing this to?

Identity

Do you have a personal mission or vision when youre doing this?

Other questions

Hoe do you know that youre good at this?

What happened for you to be good at this?

What are you trying to achieve when you do this?

Who else do you recommend I talk to about this?

What is your state when you do this?

Do you set any specific outcomes when you do this?

How do you know when you've achieved them?
