Imagine if you actually knew your coworker’s or your partner’s true motivations behind their behaviors. Forget the guessing games and assumptions – you can actually have a report in your hands that describes in detail what motivates them, what drives them, and what their blind spots are. And they can have this same information about you.
All of a sudden, communication, understanding and empathy all come so much easier. Partnerships and teams feel more solid and effective. You feel like you understand yourself and your coworkers or partner better and now finally have the language to communicate your collective traits to each other.
This doesn’t just have to be a fantasy. This information is exactly what the Enneagram assessment unlocks for us. Hear from certified IEQ9 Enneagram and leadership coach, Ali Dunn, about how knowing your Enneagram type can make your work, your relationships and your life easier.
