Enneagram for Team Transformation
The Enneagram is a powerful tool that can help teams increase self-awareness and drive collective growth and performance. When individual team members understand their predominant Enneagram type, along with its associated strengths, challenges, and blind spots, they are better able to understand their behavior and its impact on the overall dynamics and success of the team.
When individual team members gain insights into the Enneagram types, and the associated motivations, strengths and challenges of their team members, something quite magical happens. Teams develop greater awareness, understanding, empathy, connection, and trust, and they are better able to work together to achieve common goals.
In half-day or full-day Enneagram workshops, leaders and teams discover deep insights into their collective strengths and challenges, and identify development and growth strategies that strengthen team effectiveness.
Areas of application include:
Clear communication: We communicate in a variety of ways, including through verbal and written communication, listening, and through our body language. Each Enneagram type tends to have its own language and meta-message—an underlying message we unconsciously communicate to others. Team members learn more about their predominant communication style, and how their style is being experienced by others.
Effective feedback: Giving and receiving feedback is an art form and skill that can be difficult to master. Team members learn feedback strategies and develop understanding for how to adapt their feedback approach.
Conflict resolution: Much of the conflict and friction experienced within a team environment can be attributed to a lack of awareness or misunderstanding. Participants develop awareness of their own triggers, and those of others, and develop strategies for consciously working through them more productively.
From Insight to Action
During our time together, team members take the "what" and "so what" of their Enneagram learning and move into the "now what." This ensures teams develop collective actions and strategies that strengthen team effectiveness and create meaningful change.
