ENNEAGRAM
PERSONALITY PROFILING TOOL
Introduction
The Enneagram is
a framework for understanding relationships
with:
- Yourself
- Your associates and work colleagues
- Your team and oOrganisation
- Intimates such as partner and
kids
The key to any successful
relationship is the ability to communicate
effectively with others. Yet communication
can often be difficult if personality
type is not taken into consideration.
This is because people tend to believe
that others think the same way they
do, although this is not always the
case.
What is the
Enneagram?
The Enneagram is
a model of personality that describes
9 views of the world. 9 ways of making
decisions. 9 patterns of thoughts,
feelings, motivations and perceptions.
Each has a unique way of perceiving
the world. No one type is better than
another: they are all equally valid.
What the
Enneagram isn’t
The Enneagram isn’t
just another tool for identifying
your personality type or putting you
into a box with a label on it. In
fact it’s just the reverse.
By working with the Enneagram, you
will see very clearly, the box that
you are currently living in, and the
limitations that you have placed on
yourself as a result. It will also
give you strategies of how to break
free from these limitations and begin
to utilise your own and other potential.
