Acuity World – Applying NLP in Leadership, Sales and Business in Denmark

One of the most rewarding aspects of participating in the global NLP training community is witnessing how our shared methodologies are applied in diverse professional contexts around the world. During a recent visit to Orlando, USA, I had the opportunity to reconnect with my Danish colleague, Henrik Wenøe—a fellow NLP Master Trainer certified by the Society of NLP—who has dedicated his work to the thoughtful integration of NLP in leadership development and professional sales.

Henrik is the founder of Acuity World, a Denmark-based training institute that focuses on supporting individuals and organizations in developing their capacity for Personal Leadership and Personal Selling. His aim is not merely to teach NLP techniques, but to make these tools truly applicable in the everyday realities of modern business—particularly in B2B contexts where long-term relationships, adaptability, and authentic communication are essential.

Eye Accessing Cues

What are in NLP Eye Accessing Cues?

In NLP Eye Accessing Cues give subtle information about the thoughts of the person you are working with. The information below does not say it is ‘always’ this way, but rather that you should check whether reliable information is provided. Hence there are cases known of people where the response in accessing cues is different (Remembered and Constructed reversed).

Gathering Information (Deletion)

Gathering Information is the First part of the Inverse of the Meta Model. Remember that the Meta Model is used to recover Deleted information. Here we are going to discover the Four parts it is been made of. Now in the Meta Model we learned to ask the questions to discover what has been deleted by the client. In the Milton Model we, as the NLP Practitioner, we are utilizing to deliberately delete information and provide suggestions with it. This part, Gathering Information, is the most useful and most powerful of the three chunks of information. So study it closely, in the end it will make the utilization of the Milton Model only easier.

Behaviour

Leadership Mirror Neurons and Behavior

This article is about Leadership Mirror Neurons and Behavior. A mirror neuron is a neuron that fires both when an animal acts and when the animal observes the same action performed by another. The neuron “mirrors” the behavior of the other, as though the observer were itself acting. Such neurons have been directly observed in various species. In humans, brain activity consistent with that of mirror neurons has been found in the premotor cortex, the supplementary motor area, the primary somatosensory cortex and the inferior parietal cortex. Many scientists believe they are important in imitation and language acquisition.

NLP Meta Model

Responsible use of the Meta Model

Responsible use of the Meta Model is one of the foundations we learn people in our Trainings. As NLP as a technology constantly develops and evolves, we constantly update our knowledge by training at least once a year directly with the Society of NLP. It is critical to know the difference between asking questions to clarify your own understanding of someone else’s model, and asking questions to challenge their model. Even if I do, I always want to know when I have moved from one to another. Even if the line seems very gray, you can tell when you have made this shift. One mode is purely about gathering information and your subject will sense this. The other mode is about expanding and challenging their model of the world and this can be confrontational.

Influence

The Power of Influence and Seduction

In our coaching practice we receive a lot of questions about the power of influence and seduction. Well, let me be clear about that, the power of influence and seduction is never to be about to underestimate. From birth on we start to flirt around the world and influence by yelling and screaming when we need food, drink or other things. At that very moment we are not aware how we do it, but we manage to do it. We do know precisely how to tune in to mom and dad to get the things done at the frequency they act the fastest. At a sudden, as a grown up, we start to think all kinds of things with the goal we want to achieve. Troubling the outcome big-time. This article is about the twofold, influencing and seducing from the power within.

NLP Deletion

The first part of the NLP Meta Model is Deletion. In NLP Deletion occurs when we selectively pay attention to certain aspects of your experience and not others. In NLP, Deletion means we overlook or omit certain sensory information. Without deletion, we would be faced with much too much information to handle in our conscious minds.

Generalisation

NLP Universal Quantifiers

What are in NLP Universal Quantifiers?
Generalizations that preclude exceptions or alternative choices are in NLP Universal Quantifiers. NLP suggests that these are virtually never an accurate representation of the objective state of things. There are almost always exceptions to any rules. You use Universal quantifiers to eliminate objections and therefore, perhaps, objectivity.

Ambiguity

NLP Ambiguities

In NLP Ambiguities come in a variety of flavors. Phonological Ambiguity, Syntactic Ambiguity, Scope Ambiguity and Punctuation Ambiguity. Ambiguity or vague usage of language, literally means lack of specificity. You can utilize these patterns by taking advantage of everything in the listeners experience. You can use both internal and external environments to support the intention of the speaker. While working with a client, the door to your working room mistakenly opens. Instead of getting frustrated and annoyed, you start to utilize your environment.
