NLP History 6 - New Code

John Grinder began collaborating with Judith DeLozier; between 1982-1987 they began developing the New Code of NLP, they were heavily influenced by anthropologist Gregory Bateson, and a desired to create an aesthetic and ethical framework for the use of NLP patterns. Their recode was presented in a series of seminars, titled Turtles All the Way Down; Prerequisites to Personal Genius, transcripts were published in book by the same name. In the 1980s, Grinder ceased providing public seminars, to pursue cultural change in organisations. During this time he held few public seminars, while he continued to refine the New Code of NLP with his new partner, Carmen Bostic St Clair. They published recommendations to the NLP community to become a legitimate field of study, in their work, Whispering in the Wind (2001).

Other members of the original development group, formed their own associations and modifications of the original work and took NLP is different directions.

Richard Bandler together with Todd Epstein developed much of the theory and practice associated with 'submodalities', that is, "the particular perceptual qualities that may be registered by each of the five primary sensory modalities".Post-1980 much of Bandler's work revolved around the NLP concept of submodalities. Bandler independently developed Design Human Engineering and authored Magic in Action, Using Your Brain for a Change, Time for a Change and Persuasion Engineering (written with John LaValle). (As of 2006, Bandler continues to lecture, consult and produce media on NLP)
