You've probably taken a personality test at least once in your life...

Myers-Briggs, DiSC, and so many more.

Maybe you want to know your biggest strengths... your dream career... or even your hidden flaws...

But...

There's actually more to personality tests and how they pertain to you as a CEO than you might think.

Whether you're leading a team of 5 or 50 people, it's time that you discover your Enneagram type.

The Enneagram can help you uncover your leadership style. Knowing your leadership style can give you a clear idea of how you currently lead, and how you should be leading. 

On this week's episode, I'm thrilled to share a conversation with Kristen Edwards.
