Before co-founding Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) with Dr. Richard Bandler, John Grinder obtained a degree in psychology from the University of San Francisco and a PhD in Linguistics from the University of California in San Diego on the late'60's and early'70's. As well as obtaining his education, he also served as a captain in the Special Forces then later worked for the US Intelligence Agency. 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. John later became involved in some therapy sessions with Richard Bandler, a psychology student at the time. It was here that he became enthralled with the ways that therapists use linguistic patterns to effect results with their patients. John Grinder and Richard Bandler later went on to co-found Neuro Linguistic Programming. John and Richard studied the language patterns used effectively by therapists such as Virginia Satir, Milton H. Erickson and Fritz Perls. These patterns along with transformational grammar became the basis for the pairs own model known as Neuro Linguistic Programming. Further developed using the published works of the above therapists, the model John was working on later became Neuro Linguistic Programming. Since then John has also co-written many works on the practical applications of NLP and the theories behind it. All over the world, many people have become more self-confident as a result of studying the techniques involved in Neuro Linguistic Programming.
