John Thomas Grinder Jr.
Life and career
Grinder graduated from the University of San Francisco with a B.A. degree in psychology in the early 1960s. Grinder then entered the United States Army and served as a captain in the US Special Forces in Europe during the Cold War; following this he went on to work for a US intelligence agency. In the late 1960s, he returned to college to study linguistics and received his Ph.D. degree from the University of California, San Diego in 1971.[2] His dissertation, titled On Deletion Phenomena in English, was published by Mouton in 1976.[3]
In the early 1970s, Grinder worked in George A. Miller's laboratory at Rockefeller University.[4] After receiving his doctorate, Grinder took a full-time position as an assistant professor in the linguistics faculty at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC). He engaged in undergraduate teaching, graduate teaching, and research. His research focused on Noam Chomsky's theories of transformational grammar specializing in syntax and deletion phenomena. He published several research papers with Paul Postal on the syntactical structures relating to "missing antecedents"[5] or missing parasitic gaps for the pronoun. They argued that the syntactic structure of a deleted verb phrase (VP) is complete.[6][7][8] Edward Klima, doctoral adviser to both Postal and Grinder at UCSC,[9] became involved in the early development of generative semantics.
Grinder co-authored, with Suzette Elgin, a linguistics text book titled A Guide to Transformational Grammar: History, Theory, Practice.[10] In 2005, Grinder published Steps to an Ecology of Emergence[11] with Tom Malloy and Carmen Bostic St Clair in the journal Cybernetics and Human Knowing.
Development of neuro-linguistic programming
In 1972 (during Grinder's stint at
From there Grinder and Bandler modelled the various cognitive behavioral patterns of therapists such as Perls, a leading figure in family therapy
The trio began hosting seminars and practice groups. These served as a place to practice and test their newly discovered patterns while allowing them to transfer the skills to the participants. Several books were published based on transcripts of their seminars, including Frogs into Princes (1979). During this period, a creative group of students and psychotherapists were asked to join including Robert Dilts,
In the 1977, Bandler requested that Pucelik be removed from the group for personal reasons - which was agreed to by immediate mutual consent.[13] It wasn't long after that that Bandler, Grinder and their group of associates split acrimoniously, and stopped working together. Following this, many members of their group went out on their own and took NLP in their own directions. Some of Bandler and Grinder's books went out of print for a while due to legal problems between the co-authors. Structure I & II, and Patterns I & II – considered[by whom?] the foundation of the field – were later republished. Bandler attempted to claim legal ownership of the term neuro-linguistic programming; however, it was eventually deemed to be a generic term, and could therefore not be trademarked. Grinder and Bandler settled their claims around 2001, clearing a platform for the future development of NLP as a legitimate field of endeavor.[14]
New code of neuro-linguistic programming
Between 1982 and 1987, strongly influenced by anthropologist and systems theorist
The seminars[
John Grinder and Carmen Bostic St Clair have further developed The New Code of NLP. (Bostic St Clair founded[citation needed] Quantum Leap Inc., a cultural-change consultancy firm.) As of 2014[update] Grinder and Bostic St Clair continue to present public seminars on NLP internationally. In 2001, Grinder (with Bostic St Clair) published Whispering in the Wind with a "set of recommendations as to how specifically NLP can improve its practice and take its rightful place as a scientifically based endeavor with its precise focus on modeling of the extremes of human behavior: excellence and the high performers who actually do it".[15] Grinder has since begun to strongly encourage the field to make a recommitment to what he considers the core activity of NLP: modeling.
