The Enneagram in the Workplace: Better insight into yourself and others

Organizations become more agile and teams more self-organizing. Insight into yourself and others is therefore more important than ever. The Enneagram is a proven model that describes nine personality types. It offers tools with which you can communicate more effectively, manage more consciously and achieve better results with teams.

The Enneagram theory clarifies which of the nine types applies to you the most. Each type uses a specific strategy as a means to success, but each approach also entails obstacles. Understanding your type helps you better understand your own motives, making it easier to reach your goals.

The Enneagram offers many leads for (team) coaching, talent development and organizational change. In this book you will be introduced to the Enneagram and the application possibilities in your daily practice.
