Master Practitioner Track 2: Meta Programs

The habitual filters that decide what each person notices, and how to read, match and stretch them.

Two people leave the same meeting. One remembers the big picture, the other every detail. Neither is wrong. They are looking through different mental filters, and Dr. Hall's manual lists 60 of them. You learn to hear in a few sentences whether someone thinks big picture or detail, trusts their own judgment or others', moves toward goals or away from problems, and to speak to them in their own terms.

  • See why people who face the same facts notice completely different things
  • Detect someone's thinking patterns from their words and gestures, then match them
  • Stretch your own patterns instead of being stuck in one way of seeing

01Why this course

Six ideas this workshop turns around.

  1. 01Day 1

    “People are fixed personality types.”

    Dr. Hall treats these patterns as how you operate in a context, not who you are. Unlike personality types, they can shift and expand.

  2. 02Day 1

    “People are either left-brained or right-brained.”

    He calls this a myth that brain research does not support, and replaces it with patterns you can actually observe and work with.

  3. 03Day 1

    “Perfectionism just means high standards.”

    Perfectionism tends to burn out into scepticism. The healthier pattern is the optimiser, who aims high and still accepts good enough to move on.

  4. 04Day 2

    “Introverts are shy.”

    Introversion is about how you recharge: alone or with people. It says nothing about whether you are confident in company.

  5. 05Day 3

    “You need confidence before you act.”

    Confidence follows competence. Build the skill and the confidence comes with it, while your basic worth stays unconditional either way.

  6. 06Day 3

    “To change how you think, you must fight your old pattern.”

    Most patterns are expanded rather than replaced. You give yourself permission to add a new way of seeing alongside the old one.

02What you get

What you will be able to do

Day 1

Read how people think

  • Understand what these thinking patterns are and where they come from
  • Hear big-picture versus detail, toward versus away-from, and more
  • Notice whether someone decides by their own judgment or by others'
  • Practise detecting patterns through a card game and a three-person exercise

Day 2

Influence, sell and relate better

  • Learn what convinces a particular person, and how often they need to see it
  • Understand how people weigh time, cost and quality when they buy
  • Work with differences in trust, competitiveness and social style

Day 3

Expand your own range

  • See how a pattern forms and gets locked in by beliefs
  • Explore patterns of stress, motivation, risk and decision-making
  • Look at confidence, self-worth and responsibility as distinct patterns
  • Give yourself permission to use a new pattern where you need it

03Contents

05Who it's for

Who it is for

Coaches, trainers and teachers

  • You work with people who see the world very differently from you
  • You want to explain the same idea in the way each person takes it in
  • You want exercises and games you can reuse

Managers, sales and business people

  • You need to know what convinces a particular client or colleague
  • You want to place people in roles that suit how they think
  • You manage teams where people clash over style

Anyone curious about why people differ

  • You keep wondering how others can miss what seems obvious to you
  • You want language for your own blind spots

07FAQ

Questions and answers

How do the four Master Practitioner tracks fit together?

Master Practitioner is the advanced level of training in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and Neuro-Semantics. These four tracks were recorded at one live 12-day training with Dr. Hall in the Philippines in 2018: Track 1 Modeling, Track 2 Meta Programs, Track 3 Mind Lines and Track 4 Mastery Via Trance. You can watch them in any order, but Track 1 is the natural start. Together they cover the teaching days; the final day of team presentations is not included.

What are meta programs, in plain words?

They are the habitual filters your mind looks through: whether you notice the big picture or the details, what is wrong or what is right, your own judgment or other people's. They are neither good nor bad, and they are not fixed.

Do I need any background?

It is not required to follow the patterns, but some NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) terms and exercises assume you have met them before. Day 1 starts with what a thinking pattern is.

Why does Day 1 seem to start mid-way?

Because this track continues an ongoing 12-day training. The first minutes deal with homework from the previous track, and then the teaching on thinking patterns starts from the beginning.

What comes with the videos?

The 89-page training manual used in the room, which lists all 60 patterns.

Are there exercises?

Yes. Dr. Hall uses a pattern-spotting card game, three-person practice, show-of-hands polls and a mapping exercise, all with instructions you can follow with a partner.

Does the recording end abruptly?

Yes, the Day 3 recording ends during the final round of the pattern-spotting game, after the last patterns have been taught.

How do I get access after I pay?

Right after your PayPal payment you are enrolled automatically at academy.ns-trainings.com. If you are new, we create your account and email you your login from noreply@ns-trainings.com (check your spam folder if you do not see it). If you already have an account, the course is added to it, so use your usual login or the Forgot password link.

How long do I have access?

Your enrolment has no end date. Log in whenever you like and watch again as often as you want.

What do I need to watch?

A phone, tablet or computer with a web browser and an internet connection. You watch online at academy.ns-trainings.com. There is nothing to install.

What language are the videos in?

The workshops are taught in English.

Do I get a certificate?

No. These are video recordings of the workshop for your own learning. They do not include a certificate.

How do I pay?

You pay securely with PayPal on this page. Where PayPal offers it in your country, you can also pay by card through PayPal.

Can I buy more than one course?

Yes. Tick the extra course in the order box before you pay. When you take two or more courses, you get 5% off automatically.

08The teacher

Who is Dr. L. Michael Hall?

Dr. L. Michael Hall

Founder of Neuro-Semantics

Dr. L. Michael Hall, Ph.D.

Psychologist, author and trainer. He teaches people how to think, not what to think.

Dr. L. Michael Hall holds a Ph.D. in Cognitive-Behavioral Sciences and is the founder of Neuro-Semantics. He worked as a psychotherapist in private practice for about 20 years, and in 1996 co-founded the International Society of Neuro-Semantics, which trains and certifies coaches and trainers around the world.

For about 40 years he has studied one question: how people create meaning, and how that meaning drives what they feel and do. Out of that work came many books, among them "Mind Lines" and "Figuring Out People", his Meta-Coaching training for professional coaches, and "Thinking for Humans", a set of thinking skills in three groups: essential, creative and executive.

He still teaches live, and every week he writes "Neurons", an article for the Neuro-Semantics community. The courses on this site are recordings of his workshops in Mauritius, Malaysia, Hong Kong and the Philippines: you watch him teach a real group, with the questions and exercises from the room.

Symptoms are problematic, but they're not the problem.

Dr. L. Michael Hall

What is Neuro-Semantics?

Neuro-Semantics is an approach to personal and professional development that grew out of NLP and General Semantics. It looks at how people create meaning, and how that meaning shapes their thinking, emotions and behavior. Coaches, trainers and individuals use it to think more clearly and to make lasting changes.
