For our seventh episode of Clean@Work, John and Sarah talked to Penny Tompkins and James Lawley about using symbolic modelling in their work with organisations.
Penny Tompkins and James Lawley are the developers of Symbolic Modelling, which incorporates the Clean Language of David Grove. They are leading authorities on using a self-generated metaphor for personal and professional development. They have trained Symbolic Modelling and Clean Language to coaches, managers and teachers throughout the world. Their book, Metaphors in Mind, is a comprehensive guide to their approach.
They have been coaches, modellers, consultants and facilitators to various organisations and teams as diverse as global pharmaceutical companies, Yale University Child Study Center, NASA Goddard Space Center, and the Findhorn Spiritual Community in Scotland.
