If you’re in a situation where you want to explain the connection between language and behavior, you might start by run through the whole list of profiling categories, giving examples of language and behavior. You could ask the delegates to explain it to each other, or you could ask them to read the list of categories and work through a written example. In any case, what’s important is that they start to hear the patterns in normal speech and correlate them to behavioral choices. Then, when they have some real experience to build on they can understand the relevance of the name ‘metaprograms’.
