- I will not be one to make waves anymore and I have become more peaceful in recent months with this article. I realise that no-one was willing to catch onto what a new editor would say who did enter so rigorously into the challenge. You did ask for evidence for a conflict of interest I hope this can help ----->... Dave_Snowden A brief description of cynefin and change working within a business frame. David Snowdens business Cognitive Edge. The information presented in these articles show that both NLP and Cynefin are different models or systems of thinking. The wikipedia article shows that Dave Snowden is the creator of the cynefin model and it is what he is famous for. The Cynefin article presents a business model that Cynefin is applied to or ecology within the business place; Ecology also being a pre-requisite for any change or enhancement in ones professional or private life in NLP (i.e. communication both verbal and non verbal). The cognitive edge article shows that David Snowden also owns a business that suggests that it uses a psychological edge over other practices for its customers is also is marketed in much the same way to NLP in business. It further shows that he has a business that practices teaching cynefin principals. This presents itself as it may be a conflict of interest to the article concerned for monetary purposes (i.e. shifting opinions so that people will buy product b rather than product a as outlined on wikipedia).

Looking over the references for the article there are a majority that opine to NLP's medicinal qualities by professionals in psychotherapy. The vague distortion that NLP is not used successfully for other applications such as life goals, success coaching, business communications sports psychology training etc... may be inherently in NPOV from those sources to include . I would suggest that the references for medicine and well being have their place in the article and should be limited to the psychotherapists speciality of field. They do not have a speciality in business, sports psychology, life coaching and other applications I think we may find other sources to cover these areas. that is successful businesses professionals, athletes, sports psychologists as sources that represent their respective fields.
This of course would mean that the article would need a format change to incorporate the total ideas, attitudes of the unsuccesful or successful NLP practices.
