Perceptual Positions is a Neuro Linguistic Programming technique devised by founder John Grinder with Judith Delozier. Its origins are rooted in the theories of the various psychologists that Grinder and co-founder Richard Bandler modelled while developing NLP, including Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls and Virginia Satir. (The process that Grinder and Bandler termed ‘modelling’ means observing and copying someone’s thoughts, gestures, words and actions in order to understand and learn from them.)
The benefit of Perceptual Positions comes primarily from looking at situations from different perspectives and its simplest analogy is ‘walking a mile in someone else’s shoes’.
