Co-founders and Licensed Trainers of NLP™, alongside a dedicated Business Growth Advisor, all committed to your development with precision, warmth, and real experience.
Co-Founder · Licensed Trainer of NLP™
Dr. Pollyanna Chávez, co-owner of Next Level Pro Institute and founder of Mindful Transformations Inc., blends scientific precision with behavioral insight and heart. She holds a PhD in nutritional biochemistry and has spent her career in public health and behavioral surveillance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
That scientific background gives her a rare lens: change is not random. It follows patterns, and when those patterns are understood, they can be reorganized.
Trained directly by Dr. Richard Bandler, co-creator of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Pollyanna earned her Licensed Trainer of NLP™ and Licensed Master Practitioner of NLP™ credentials through the Society of NLP™, and certified as a Mindvalley Hypnotherapist under world-renowned hypnotist Paul McKenna.
At Next Level Pro Institute, she trains students in NLP and hypnosis through live demonstration, guided practice, and feedback, with one belief at the center: real change happens when people practice a skill until it becomes natural.
"Change is not random. It follows patterns, and patterns can be reorganized."

Co-Founder · Licensed Trainer of NLP™
Jimmy van der Ham is a Licensed Trainer of NLP™ and Licensed Master Practitioner of NLP™, founder of Human Optimization, and co-founder of Next Level Pro Institute, based in the Netherlands. He is also the main trainer for our in-person Licensed Practitioner of NLP™ Bootcamps.
Trained directly by Dr. Richard Bandler, co-creator of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Jimmy teaches people how to use their brain more effectively, especially when it matters most.
His work blends NLP, hypnosis, and unconscious change into practical transformation, helping people optimize the patterns that shape how they think, feel, communicate, and perform.
Because when you optimize the person, they begin to optimize the life they create, and positively influence the people around them.
Through private coaching, group trainings, and immersive NLP trainings, Jimmy helps people master their state, communicate with more impact, and create lasting change from the inside out.
"When you optimize the person, they begin to optimize the life they create."
Business Growth Advisor
Dr. Shane Ram is a behaviour scientist and former C-Suite executive who helps Heads of HR, Learning and Development, and CEOs solve the most expensive problem in leadership development, leaders who know better but keep reverting, by identifying the hidden bottlenecks running their people and shifting them at the neurological level, fast and permanently.
He created Meta-B Leadership Technology, a neuroscience-informed methodology for rapid behaviour change. He invented the world’s first Leadership Artificial Intelligence Assistant, and is the author of Future Ready Leadership.
Shane supports the Institute as a Business Growth Advisor and strategic partner. He guides practitioners on building their practice and is not a trainer of the NLP programs.
