NLP Podcast extract : Nicole Bachmann of Facilitation


Nicole Bachmann is a coach and facilitator with a strategic business background and a law degree. In her longstanding career across the international media and other industries, she has successfully lead and inspired a wide range of people from many different cultures in four different languages.

"I think it becomes increasingly more important as there is increasing collaboration between people who aren't necessarily in the same place - because I think business is changing as so far as a fair amount of people are working from home, or they're working from different countries - there's much more collaboration internationally going on."

"And very often these people don't see each other very much. And therefore, the challenges that brings with itself, where we can't read the body language, we're not used to meeting each other all of the time, and stuff like that."

"And I do think also that people that are actually meeting a lot, still have a need for facilitation. Because one of the things that I find fascinating is that one of the misunderstanding that happen between people don't happen between people who don't speak that same language - they happen with people who do speak the same language or seem to be. "

"If you speak English and you speak German - and whether or not you speak a little bit of German and I speak a little bit of English doesn't matter - when we go and communicate with each other, we will be very careful about communication, because we recognize that we're speaking different languages and that we need to make sure that we understand each other well. "

"Where as, if we both speak English, and this is where we're both coming from, we just think that the words that we use mean the same thing for you and for me. However, this is not very often the case. That's when it starts to get very interesting."
