Richard Bandler

Richard Wayne Bandler (born February 24, 1950 in Teaneck , New Jersey ) is an American mathematician , computer scientist and psychologist and co-developer of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).

Life

He moved to the University of California at Santa Cruz after his college degree and studied mathematics, information science, psychology and graduated in March 1973 with a bachelor's degree. In 1975, Bandler earned a Masters Degree in Theoretical Psychology from Lone Mountain College, San Francisco.

Richard Bandler transcribed Fritz Perls' Gestalt sessions in 1972 and soon led his own Gestalt therapy groups together with Frank Pucelik , with John Grinder , then a university assistant specializing in transformational grammar , having to participate as a supervisor. This soon developed into a collaboration in which they also swapped roles. First they described linguistically well-founded language patterns, from which they developed their own communication model, which they called a “meta model”. This resulted in Bandler and Grinder's first book together, "The Structure of Magic I", in 1975. They later moved on to analyzing non-verbal communication.

Bandler and Grinder chose people as models who were exemplary in their field to find out what they were doing differently from others. They recorded the knowledge they gained in comprehensible steps. In retrospect, they referred to this process as “modeling”. People modeled included Fritz Perls , Virginia Satir , Gregory Bateson , Milton H. Erickson, and Linus Pauling . Bandler also modeled the Israeli physicist and founder of the Feldenkrais School Moshé Feldenkrais . Later on, while traveling to India, Africa and Mexico, Bandler also modeled yogis and shamans and developed other change models such as Design Human Engineering (DHE) , Shamanistic Engineering and Neuro Hypnotic Repatterning (NHR) .

In 1975 Bandler founded the publishing house "Meta Publications" and in 1978 the "Society of NLP". Bandler still trains “his” NLP trainers himself.

In April 1978, Richard Bandler married Leslie Cameron. In November 1980, Cameron filed for divorce, accusing him of strangling and threatening her. In the following years Bandler consumed alcohol and cocaine in large quantities and befriended the dealer James Marino. On November 3, 1986, Marino's girlfriend, a cocaine addicted prostitute named Corine Christensen, was shot dead with one of Bandler's guns. Bandler and Marino accused each other of the crime; Bandler was charged with murder and acquitted by a jury on January 29, 1988 . The fact has not been resolved to this day.

Contributions to NLP

Richard Bandler played a decisive role in shaping or introducing several NLP models, including the meta model, the Milton model , anchoring, reframing , belief change, nesting loops, submodalities and the timeline.

Processes

Bandler worked with Grinder until the end of 1980. In 1996/1997, Bandler filed two lawsuits against John Grinder and many more of his previous NLP colleagues, including against Carmen Bostic-St. Clair, as well as Steve and Connirae Andreas. Bandler sued, among other things, for breach of contract, unauthorized use of a protected trademark ("NLP"), missing accounts, etc. Bandler's claims amounted to up to 10 million US dollars.

At the end of 2000, Bandler and Grinder reached an agreement that they would be the "co-authors and co-founders" of the NLP and recognize the mutual contributions to the development of the NLP.
