David Gordon
David is one of the original developers of NLP, and has spent the last 25 years helping to create and shape the field. During that time, he has trained many thousands of people throughout the world in NLP, therapeutic metaphor, hypnosis and modelling.
He has written many articles on NLP and five books, including: Therapeutic Metaphors, Phoenix: The Therapeutic Metaphors of Milton H. Erickson, The NLP Home Study Guide and Know How(with Leslie Cameron-Bandler and Michael Lebeau). David's passion is modelling which has consumed most of his professional attention over the last ten years. He has developed several formats for usefully eliciting the structures that provide the foundations of human experience.
Delighting in "purposeful struggle", David is continually developing modelling theory and is currently writing a book on his latest findings.
