Me,

Due to some movements in the company another guy is my boss now.
Even do I knew him befoer, I hadn't noticed before any of his selfanchors but
with Toms assigment that in mind, it was obvius to find.

We were also in a on on one meeting and I noticed that each time he tried to
convince me of something he would raise her left arm and make a ball with his
hand (similar to a nuclear bottom anchor), and raise lightly his shoulders and
eyebrows and proyecting his head a little upfront

So when I wanted him to agree with me I went carefully imitating his same tone
of voice, same tempo and when delivering statement did the same gesture, (and I
added nodding with my head and went to subodinated position)

When done that, I noticed the rapport deepened and was like he was kind of
alliviated I see things the way he sees.

The thing I got him to agree with me wasn't that big, but it was great to put a
skill in use, to notice how it worked and also notice other related results like
haveing the rapport get bigger. I plan to work him so our work relationships
goes smoother and productive

This was even a better result because I'm going through a bad cold and my state
was far from be the best

wink wink
