John Grinder - A Brief Biographical History

John Grinder served as a captain in the US Army Special Forces, then later for the US Intelligence agency. Before this, in the late 1960's, he graduated with a degree in psychology from the University of San Francisco and a PhD from the University of California in San Diego in Linguistics in the early 1970's. He went on to co-found Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) with Dr. Richard Bandler.

John Grinder is a specialist in the area of syntax in the broader field of linguistics. He has published many works, On Deletion Phenomena in English (1972) and Guide to Transformational Grammar (1973) being two of the most exceptional works. John was later appointed as a professor of Linguistics at the University of San Francisco in Santa Cruz.

After being invited to participate in therapy groups with psychology student Richard Bandler, John became aware of linguistic patterns used by the therapists. John went on to co-found Neuro Linguistic Programming with Bandler.

The language patterns used by therapists such as Fritz Perls, Virginia Satir and Milton H. Erickson, who was a hypnotherapist, was used along with transformational grammar as the basis for John Grinder and Richard Bandler to come up with their own model called Neuro Linguistic Programming.

John has also co-written many other pieces about the theoretical basis and practical uses of NLP. This was after developing the model of Neuro Linguistic Programming further, partly based on the publications of the therapists above.

The self confidence gained by practitioners of NLP has enabled many to become more successful in both their personal and professional lives. Many people have trouble believing just how radically their lives have been changed for the better after using the principals of Neuro Linguistic Programming. The changes are often even visible to co-workers and family members who are unaware of your learning NLP techniques.
