No Bateson, no NLP

A “System” to Bateson and his friends is a group of things that when they are put together in a certain way become greater than the sum of their parts. What??? For example: a pile of bricks when put together in a certain way with some cement, wood, glass, pipes and wire becomes a system called a “House”. The house is “more than” just bricks + cement + wood + glass + pipes + wires. People come and live in it and it becomes a home. People buy and sell houses, so they have a money value that has nothing to do with the cost of the “ingredients” of the house.When a system is working well we get what is called “Synergy”.

Badge informationEndorsements
NLP treats people as very complex, unique, highly organised and (usually) effective systems. These systems then interact with other systems. To understand NLP, participants have to show that they understand this idea and that by changing one part of a personal system there will often be other consequences. It’s like when someone stops smoking, it’s not unusual that they might put-on some weight.
This badge shows that the participant of the international training, “Mental Health Promotion in the Youth Field”, has a grasp of the very basic ideas behind Systems Theory.
