TYPE-CASTING
With Michael Mallows
1999 WORKSHOPS FOR
WRITERS • ACTORS • DIRECTORS • STORY ANALYSTS • NOVELISTS • EDITORS • ETC.
AND OTHER CREATORS OF FICTIONAL CHARACTERS
 
Type-Casting workshops link the following three models of personality characteristics:
The Enneagram a typology that has been around for
at least two thousand years!
Transactional Analysis (TA), a system for making sense of
what characters do to, with and for each other.
NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP) You will explore subjective maps
of ‘Reality’ and creativity. Characters and actors from well known films
will be used to illustrate aspects of the models underpinning Type-Casting events.


 
Michael J. Mallows F.E.P. is the author of The Power to Use NLP and, with Joe Sinclair, Peace of Mind is a Piece of Cake. He is currently working on a pilot for a sit-com, and, on spec, a t.v. drama series. For over twenty years, Michael has been helping groups, individuals, teams, organisations, and families to communicate more confidently and effectively. Type-Casting blends Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Transactional Analysis (TA) with other models for personal development and change. Michael introduces enjoyable methods of creativity and productivity.
Tony Bennett, Sacha Distel and many others have recorded his lyrics, and he is also working on the lyrics for a one woman television musical. A challenging, entertaining, often inspiring workshop facilitator,
Michael will help you to make a difference in your creative output.
