The Enneagram & Love
Ever sat through a movie with someone, talked about it afterwards and wondered, "Did we see the same movie?" Then you understand that persons can see and experience the same event in entirely different ways.
The enneagram is a map for understanding this dynamic within our relationships. It will open your eyes to how it is that others can see things so differently. It provides invaluable insight as to how to adjust to or deal with those differences. We can be more open, more compassionate, more receptive, more in the moment, more ready and capable of responding to others in ways that keep connections healthy.
The enneagram will help you understand your basic motivations as well as those of your team members, employees and / or your client.
Specifically the enneagram is a tool that will help you understand:
*Nine different ways people filter reality.
*Nine different ways people focus attention.
*Nine different ways people behave when stressed.
*Nine different ways people behave when relaxed.
*Nine different ways people want others to see them, nine different ways they don't and the tricks they learn to employ along the way to get their desired results.
“Understanding some sort of general principles about how people actually do have very different experiences of the world allows you to be more open and in the moment and to be more present with them, listening to what they have to say with more of a ‘beginners’ mind.” - Enneagram teacher Jack Killen on Quest of Life Podcast with Harry Faddis: Compassion, Understanding Self & Others through the Enneagram.
