innovation. The keys to success in
both are:
1) looking at the past to reinvent the
wheel in profitable ways
2) paying attention to clients to
uncover hidden needs
3) predicting the future to anticipate
trends.
Hypnotist demonstrates
innovative thinking
by Dr. Linda Ferguson
What makes people innovative?
Different kinds of innovation all
depend on the ability to apply
imagination in practical ways. Yet
many people believe that imagination
is a talent - if you are not born with it,
you have to live without it. Developing
a new imagination seems as unlikely
as growing a third hand.
Watch Mandel on stage and you see
all three keys at work. Mandel plays
with the best traditions of stage
hypnosis; he apparently reads the
minds of the people on stage, and
he predicts effortlessly what will
happen next. The skills he uses on
stage are precisely the skills that lead
businesses to connect with client
needs and reinvent processes and
products for new success. More than
this, he makes it look so easy that it
seems everyone in trance is a natural
innovator.
Growing a third hand is relatively
easy, however, if you are following the
suggestions of a master hypnotist.
When Mike Mandel takes the stage,
he showcases the universality of
imagination. Inevitably, the volunteers
who join him on stage become wildly
inventive. Under Mandel’s direction,
people suddenly see landscapes or
insects, become immersed in
adventures, or find they have an
unexpected talent for Spanish
dancing. They take a few words from
Mandel and create complicated, very
funny experiences.
People who want to know more
about their hidden talents often
explore hypnosis. Trance is a state of
focus in which it becomes easier to
isolate and identify qualities in
themselves that normally fly under
the radar. People can become aware,
through trance, that they have more
imagination than they thought they
had. They gain even more from
learning how to do hypnosis for
themselves and others. Mandel is as
passionate about teaching hypnosis
as he is about practicing it. Twice a
year, he leads students through a
program that explores hypnosis as a
way of facilitating change in oneself
or others.
Mandel’s stage show is so
completely entertaining that it is hard
to believe that it also provides real
learning about what it means to
practice innovative thinking. Mandel’s
expertise as a hypnotist is developed
on the same three abilities that drive
Participants in Mandel’s classes
explore their own abilities to imagine,
focus and influence. They learn some
of what thirty years of practice have
taught Mandel: to focus their
attention intently, to observe others
with new levels of perception, and to
combine the two in ways that
produce remarkable results. Based
on the work of the world’s greatest
hypnotherapist, Milton Erickson, the
techniques Mandel teaches allow
people to practice the skills of
innovation. They focus better on their
objectives: they notice more about
clients and circumstances; and they
anticipate change with greater
accuracy. It’s not magic: it’s a
disciplined process that uncovers
abilities that are latent in all human
beings.
Mandel’s own process for teaching
and performing looks absolutely
natural. It is natural and it is also the
product of many long years of
practice, polish and analysis. As he
gets better and better over time,
Mandel demonstrates that nothing
creates natural talent as effectively as
attention and practice. He is
Canada’s most accomplished
hypnotist precisely because he has
that most prized of business abilities:
he can innovate continuously without
losing track of himself or his
audience.
Watching his stage show is a unique
opportunity to laugh out loud while
practicing the kind of thinking that is
likely to drive your success. It’s not
really about the people clucking like
chickens. It is about the magic that
happens when people realize they
have what it takes to enter their
imaginations and bring back
something that connects with clients
or coworkers.
