The Presuppositions Of NLP 2.0

David Shephard

2026 Conference

The world has changed dramatically since NLP first emerged in the 1970s—and so have the people we serve. We’re now navigating more complexity, uncertainty, and emotional fragmentation than ever before. Yet, amidst all this, NLP remains a powerful, adaptive framework for transformation—if we evolve with it.


In this thought-provoking and practical session, you’ll explore how to make NLP work consistently—for everyone, every time, across contexts like business, coaching, therapy, mentoring, and training.


While the original NLP presuppositions still hold deep value, new challenges call for new frames, updated thinking, and presuppositions that speak to the current landscape—one shaped by global upheaval, digital saturation, and rapid psychological shifts.


This session introduces 12 new presuppositions of NLP—designed to sharpen your practice, increase congruence, and help you deliver results that stick, regardless of your audience or modality.
