"It is not our intellectual prowess that makes us great leaders,
it is rather our ability to offer our authentic selves and embrace others for who they are."
About the Enneagram & how we use it
Ancient tool with modern application and relevance
The first step on your path to becoming an even better leader, and human being, is that of an uncompromising look inside, a deeper awareness of who you really are, what lies at the core of your personality, your core motivation but also your core fears, your triggers and your blind spots - this journey is not always comfortable, but ever more so rewarding!
Overview: The 9 Enneagram archetypes
3 centres of intelligence, 3 types each = 9 archetypes
The Enneagram is divided into 3 centres of intelligence: - the Body or Action Centre. - the Heart or Feeling Centre. - and the Head or Thinking Centre. The 3 types within one centre all share a common theme and an underlying emotion; however, they each chose to deal with their core theme and emotion in a distinct way, hence, forming 3 very distinct types, that can be described by the world view they developed, and their core motivation.

BODY TYPES: #8, #9 and #1
# 8: The active Controller
#9: The adapative Peacemaker
#1: The strict Perfectionist
Theme: Autonomy and control.
The body types deal with anger by either expressing it outwards and hence demanding control (#8), suppressing it and avoiding and withdrawing from being controlled (#9), or by directing the anger inwards towards themselves and earning autonomy through the right behaviour and adhering to rules (#1)
HEART TYPES: #2, #3, #4
#2: The considerate Helper
#3: The competitive Achiever
#4: The intense Creative
Theme: Identity and self-image.
Shame as the core emotion of the heart types leads to either wanting to earning attention and appreciation and hence, self-worth, through helping others (#2), demanding attention and admiration through achievement (#3); or through withdrawal and attracting attention and gaining self-worth through being unique and different (#4)
HEAD TYPES: #5, #6, #7
#5: The quiet Specialist
#6: The sceptic Loyal
#7: The enthusiastic Visionary
Theme: Safety and security.
Head types are concerned to ensure their safety, and do so by either withdrawing from fear into their mind (#5), earning safety through belonging to a group and being prepared for whatever may come (#6), or demand to feel safe through excaping feelings of anxiety and fleeing into an outward world of possibilities and positivity (#7)
