New Code of NLP
New code of Neuro-linguistic programming (New code of NLP) is a set of patterns, developed in the early and mid-80's by John Grinder, one of the inventors of the original ("classic") NLP in attempt to correct its initial design flaws. Judith DeLozier, Grinder's associate at the time, is also credited as a co-creator of the new code in some of its aspects.

# Principles
Early in the 1980s John Grinder surveyed the terrain of the field he co-created and was somewhat disappointed at the level of personal incongruence in NLP Practitioners. Grinder saw NLP trained people who were able to weave spells of magic in for their clients and yet these people who had access to powerful patterning of change were failing miserably in applying NLP in their own lives. John Grinder states -
The New Code is a set of patterns developed in the mid - 80s by myself John Grinder with contributions initially by Judith Delozier.and subsequently by Carmen Bostic St. Clair. The motivations for the creation of the New Code are multiple and include a recognition that the coding of patterning I accomplished  with Richard  Bandler in the creation  of NLP contained a number of serious coding flaws.
In the late 70s I noticed (JG) a significant number of NLP trained practitioners who were stunningly effective in doing change work with clients yet these same Practitioners had chosen to, or lacked the choice to apply the patterns of NLP successfully to themselves. I therefore set out with the intention of designing a set of patterns that would both correct the coding flaws of the Classic code (roughly my collaborative work with Bandler from 1974 through 1978) that could not be effectively presented unless the presenter was congruent with self application.''

While by his own statement, to the present date, John Grinder had has not fully succeeded to bring congruency through self-application of NLP to people trained in NLP. What unfolds through, as a result of John Grinder and Carmen Bostics continued quest to bring excellence to the field is a brilliant set of patterns (the New Code) that significantly advanced the quality of change work in NLP.
As the New Code emerged it became clear something different was present and that was designer models which occurred as a natural consequence of deep extended modelling and training activities and partially explicated design variables underlying the classic code. The re-coding of NLP offered Grinder an opportunity to correct what he deemed to be flaws in the classic code patterning. The New Code takes the design variables of classic code formats to the extreme- for example the resource states in the New Code are created by a game or task that activates a content free high performance state which has no historical experiences attached. One of the key aspects of New Code change formats is the verification and selection of behavioural changes by calibrating with the unconscious mind using explicit kinaesthetic signals.
Grinder and Bostic  name the following most substantial patterns containing in the new code:
1. Multiple Perceptual positions, especially triple description (1st, 2nd and 3rd position).
2. Explicit Framing (outcome, intention, consequences with relevancy challenges).
3. Ordering relationships including hierarchies such as logical levels (not to be confused with Robert Dilts' Neurological levels).
4. Timelines (which, according to Grinder, were developed initially as an exercise in a joint seminar presented by Grinder and Dilts in the early '80s.
5. The Verbal Package (a streamlined version of Meta model (NLP)) with reduced questions, explicit framing and the more refined verbal distinctions such as those named by the terms, description, interpretation and evaluation.
6. A single four-steps format for change with a variable 3rd step. The 3rd step usually includes new code games, designed to induce the high performance state. These games include The Alphabet game, the NASA game and variants of Roger Tabb's trampoline exercises.
7. Sanctuary: A process for working with an unwanted state that either creeps up on you so slowly that you are not aware of it until you are experiencing it deeply or so quickly you lose control
8. Multiple forms of involuntary signals for unconscious communication.
9. Characterological adjectives.
Recently in bid to ensure New Code trainings remain in keeping with the co-developers' intentions -John Grinder and Carmen Bostic joined forces with Michael Carroll in training approved New Code Trainers. These trainers are a select group of people and the ONLY people in the world who can certify people as New Code NLP Practitioners in partnership Grinder, Bostic and Carroll through the Interntional Trainers Academy.
