Why the Enneagram?

Use of the Enneagram had a huge impact on sales, revealing to our staff how their presentation of themselves was perceived by those of other Enneagram styles. Staff members who were a Style 9 learned how to bounce back from rejection. Those who were Style 2 discovered their pre-disposition of “giving away the store.” Another sales person who had repeatedly attempted to reach the million dollar mark was able to do so following his self discovery and a few shifts in his behavior. Following Enneagram training, company sales consistently increased by 10% a year.”

About the Enneagram

The Enneagram is a personality model that reveals personal strengths as well as blinding barriers to success. Once discovered, individuals can learn to build on their strengths and overcome their personal barriers.
Specifically, the Enneagram allows individuals to better understand their core motivations and in-grained patterns of thinking, behaving and feeling.
Unlike other personality models such as Myers-Briggs, DISC, and The Big Five, which describe or predict behavior, the Enneagram reveals the core motivations that drive behavior.
The Enneagram reveals nine different “lenses,” or ways of interpreting the world in which we live. Through our own lens, we interpret situations, events, encounters, and experiences. Therefore, we only “see” one-ninth of the truth, as there are eight other ways to view the same situation.
In addition to better understanding ourselves, the Enneagram depersonalizes our perceptions of other individuals in the workplace, allowing us to better understand the intentions and behavior of others. This results in:
- productive dialogue that gets to the issues at hand in a non-threatening, non-defensive manner
- skills that help team members ask questions rather than assume another’s position or intention
- increased accountability by requiring that each person take responsibility for his or her point of view, actions and reactions
- improved relationships, morale, and commitment to co-workers and the organization

Used in the workplace, the Enneagram significantly improves:

leadership effectiveness
sales results
internal and external communications
teamwork and collaboration
productivity
client engagement and experience management
individual growth and development
morale
