Wings continue to be a common question that comes up in workshops or surveys asking what people are most curious about when it comes to the Enneagram.

While we don't teach them at Enneagram MBA, I don't want to ignore that people have questions!

This episode intends to help answer some of those questions - and explain why we typically don't teach them.

"Slotting employees into stiff, one-size-fits-all roles without considering what they’re really good at or what fires them up is starting to look pretty old-school..."


In a recent Fast Company article, Sway Group CEO Danielle Wiley shared her experience with leveraging individual strengths and transforming company culture.

It's an approach about moving beyond standardized management styles and embracing a more personalized understanding of each employee’s talents.

"When people do what they’re naturally good at, they’re happier, more engaged, and ultimately more successful."

When you listen it to this episode you'll hear her 3 top strategies for using this approach in your own team or organization with extra ideas for keeping the Enneagram alive beyond just the training day.

Each of the nine Enneagram types has a unique way of approaching change. Understanding your type and those on your team can help you develop strategies for each member to be able to move through change more effectively.

For example, if you're a Type One, you might find that you resist change because you tend to prefer proven systems to new experiments and you care deeply about consistency and routines. By recognizing this tendency, you can work on being more open to different ways of doing things.

On the other hand, if you're a Type Seven, you might thrive on change and excitement but struggle with follow-through. By recognizing this tendency, you can work on staying focused and seeing projects through to completion.

 No matter what your Enneagram type is, learning more about it can help you develop greater self-awareness and resilience in the face of change. By embracing your strengths and working on your challenges, you can become more adaptable and successful in your career and help those you lead do the same.

Listen in for an overview of how each type may approach changes in the workplace.
