What is the Enneagram?

The Enneagram typology of personalities (Ennea: nine, gram: model) was developed during several centuries and from several philosophical schools. The Enneagram describes 9 personality types and the different sets of values and filters which the 9 Ennagram types use in their way of viewing the world.

The Enneagram is a dynamic way out of our fixed patterns of thinking and behaving and our illusion that there is only one way of being in the world; our own. It means personal development and understanding of ourselves and other people. Using the Enneagram typology you will learn to respect and benefit from the differences among the 9 types, managing stress and conflict and how to target your communication and make it effective.

The Enneagram is the key to success of the organization. Efficient leaders are aware of the importance of knowing their own strength and weaknesses. The Enneagram is a potent tool for leaders on various levels in all organizations. Integrating the Enneagram in leadership and team building means optimizing the strength of the individual and will help to better leadership, communication and motivation and bring about synergy and greater customer satisfaction. Mutual respect and understanding creates peak performance in leadership and teams and satisfied employees.
