How much hope supports your personal vision?

Learn how NLP Practitioners calibrate an effective balance of truth and hope


Toronto – 30 August 2011 – On Saturday, September 17, at the HOPE Symposium, practitioners trained in NLP (neurolinguistic programming) will pull participants into a consideration of whether hope or truth is a better foundation for the choices that shape one’s life. The HOPE Symposium features two keynote speakers and three panels who will address different applications of NLP.  The Personal Vision panel presents an eclectic group of speakers who feel strongly about the way they connect with themselves and their communities.


Andrew Freund comes to HOPE with a background that mixes professional theatre with headhunting for engineers.  He is an engaging speaker with a commitment to integrating theory with lived experience. In the past two years, Andrew has moved from his first NLP programs to his first training as an NLP trainer.  He promises to challenge the audience to combine hope and truth more effectively to get themselves moving.

Leslie Willett Black integrates spirituality with business: she works to help clients find a balance between work and the rest of their lives through a relentless grounding in truth. Malcolm Ross, on the other hand, has an equally relentless commitment to hope. Listening to their presentations will challenge the audience to move between perspectives and discover what they believe is making a difference in their own lives.


Kimberly Anne St-Laurent has a huge enthusiasm for helping people experience more satisfying results. She believes that the combination of transparency (truth) and desire (hope) will move the audience to achieve their personal best.  And John Dafos, an educator who regularly inspires difficult students to do more, will encourage the audience to take a path of radical self acceptance.  “Influencing ourselves and integrating the many facets of our self takes looking at things with hard truth and enlightened hope.”


If you are in transition or ready to make a leap forward, this panel will help you discover where your values will drive your progress. Personal vision is more than a random preference: it’s a disciplined approach to noticing what you value and nurturing it in your life and community.


The HOPE Symposium runs Saturday, September 17 from 9:30 am to 6:00 pm in Room 119 at Emmanuel College (St. Charles and Avenue Road, at the Museum subway stop).  Registration at the door is $80 (includes HST), and discounts are available for early registrations.  Details are available by calling NLP Canada Training at 416-928-2394 or visit the HOPE Symposium website at www.hopesymposium.com.
