Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) and NLP Coaching
The American Board of Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Coaching Division of The American Board of NLP- Developed in the 1970s by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, developed from modelling the effective techniques and concepts from successful therapists, such as Virginia Satir and Milton Erickson.
- It is a powerful psychological methodology, comprises of both concepts and techniques that empowers individuals in understanding themselves as a human being and leveraging the power of their unconscious mind to create the desired outcomes in their lives.
- It covers the neurological processes in our conscious and unconscious minds (i.e. Neuro), the language that we use to interact with ourselves and others (i.e. linguistic) as well as the behavioural patterns that we learned from our experiences and auto-pilot in our responses (i.e. programming).
- Through mastering its concepts and techniques, we can create positive mindset, productive habits, effective self-empowerment, effective interpersonal communication, engaging relationships and fulfilling career and life.
NLP Coaching
Through the application of the NLP concepts and tools, we can empathise and coach others for better results effectively.
Special focus will be placed on the unconscious level root cause to blockages and misalignments, and to empower individuals with supportive beliefs and flexible perspectives.
Projective Art Assessment
Signature ExerciseThis is Sandra’s signature exercise, whereby participants will be asked to draw a drawing under a given theme. Participants will then present their drawings to the class, and Sandra will ask appropriate questions and interact with the presenter.
Through the things that the individual drawn, the way he shares the drawing and his answers to the questions, Sandra can discover the exposures, gaps and misunderstandings that may cause him undesirable result at work.
Through the exercise, we can invite the hidden beliefs and emotions deep in our unconscious level to be projected into the drawing. It is so telling and accurate, bypassing the mental argument or disguise, we can bring out useful reflections in a fun yet constructive way.
Key learnings may include:
- Mis-alignment between expected role and perceived role
- Unclear or misaligned goal/ target
- Negligence of the interest of stakeholders / team members / customers / management / market

The Box © Exercise
The Box ©The Box® Experience, created by Jimbo Clark of InnoGreat, is an interactive, gamified learning workshop designed to challenge the status quo, enhance creativity, and improve teamwork by physically and metaphorically examining the “box” that limits thinking.
It literalizes the phrase “think out of the box” by having participants put a specially designed, physical box on their heads. This creates a powerful, tangible experience of how mental limitations affect communication, action, and decision-making.
It is widely used to build empathy, inclusion, and a “mindset-shifting” culture within teams.
Everything DiSC©
Everything DiSC is a research-validated personality assessment tool designed to help professionals understand themselves and others at the workplace better, leading to improved communication, teamwork, and workplace culture.
Owned by Wiley, it uses a circular “circumplex” model to map behavioral tendencies across four primary styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness.
It is effective in enhancing understanding and respect of the different workstyles in the team, and hence is very suitable for heightening harmonious collaboration.
