We have now completed the 10th NLP Leadership Summit which was a great
success if we measure it by the conversations had, insights developed, new
intentions set, passions rekindled, and an overall hope for the future of
NLP. And the amazing thing is that it was not through the making of speeches
and speaking AT each other, but through authentic conversations WITH each
other.

A people who can talk authentically together can co-create and co-lead
together! And that seems to me to be the foundation of our hope of
co-creating a bright future together.

Heidi Heron who co-facilitated the process with me has just posted the
following summary of the NLP Leadership Summit  --- which will give you a
little bit of the feel of the experience.

For more about the Summits --- see www.nlpleadershipsummit.org   There you
will find two free books--- Powered by NLP, Volumes I and II  that Joe Cheal
has collected and edited.  In these you can read reviews and summaries of
the previous 3-day Summits.    Powered by NLP, Volume III will be available
later this year.

One thing that you can take away from this---

.        The actual  leaders in the field of NLP are talking and listening
and learning from each other!

Buenos dias amigos! 

What an amazing NLP Leadership Summit we had! I am so proud of our community
for having the courage to have some of the challenging, and at times heated
conversations that are so necessary for progress. The learnings, connections
and intentions we are each taking away from these 3 days will make a global
impact on our own individual worlds and the world of NLP at large. 

On Day 3 we discussed in small groups how we continue to foster the
fellowship of NLP into our futures. As we future paced our take-aways from
the weekend it was apparent that a shift had happened within these 3 days; a
desire for more collaboration, a yearning to positively effect climate
change and a demand for more credibility and ethics within NLP trainings.  

The Global Body discussion continued and the KPI set for the meeting was
achieved. This was no small feat, and I personally thank everyone involved
in these discussions. The passion and desire for excellence emanating from
this group is extraordinary. I believe we can all rest assured that the
integrity and positive intention  for the future of NLP is held in the
hearts of many, and the aim to reclaim NLP for what it means to us is very
clear. 

After outlining a proposed strategy to approximately 15 people representing
various associations around the world, I shared the Global Body report to
the whole group after lunch. A impassioned conversation occurred after the
presentation and it was agreed by most present that we continue to work
toward the creation of a Global Body.  This session was video recorded and
within the week I will send the video and slides to everyone along with more
information about the proposed strategy.  

Robert Dilts then presented some of his collaborative work with Ian
McDermott on Intentional Fellowship with an invitation to create connections
between the participants and a plan of how to maintain the intentional
fellowships we began this week and move them into the future. 

Finally - we wrapped up the weekend with a large group round-up sharing our
intentions for the future from this summit. 

What an amazing summit!  Thank you so much for all that were involved, even
those who were not present but were they with us in spirit.  

The Next Leadership Summit 

We will be meeting again at the London NLP Conference in May (15-17 May) and
our next 3 day event will take place 14-16 January 2022. Normally the event
is held on the 2nd weekend of January, however an overwhelming number of
participants have already expressed an inability to attend on that weekend
so we have moved it to the 3rd weekend in January. Please put it in your
calendars soon.  

In the next few months we will start to choose the next venue for the 2022
Leadership Summit - Santa Cruz is a hot contender as a great location to be
able to involve more of our North/South American and Asian colleagues to be
more inclusive of our members worldwide.  We will choose by vote, in the
same way we have in the past. 

Attached are some group photos, and I will encourage you to please share any
photos or other documents to the NLP Leadership Summit Facebook Group

Those travelling today, have a safe journey and a wonderful tomorrow! 

Best regards,

Heidi Heron
