The Enneagram at Work
Understand what drives your team
Every person brings different motivations, perspectives, strengths, and patterns to a team. The Enneagram provides a framework for understanding those differences—and for recognizing how they shape communication, collaboration, conflict, and leadership.
Growth by Design helps teams turn that understanding into greater self-awareness, stronger relationships, and more effective ways of working together.
Go beyond personality traits
The Enneagram explores why you do what you do—the underlying motivations and patterns that shape how you see the world, make decisions, communicate, and respond to others.
That’s what sets it apart from many other personality assessments. While those tools can provide valuable insight into what you do—your behaviors, preferences, strengths, or communication style—the Enneagram helps uncover the motivation behind those behaviors.
Two people can behave in exactly the same way for very different reasons. Understanding the why creates a deeper level of self-awareness and a better understanding of the people around you.
For teams, that insight creates a shared language for understanding differences, navigating conflict, improving communication, and making more intentional choices about how people work together.
Training built around your team - not a personality workshop
Every team has different dynamics, challenges, and goals. We begin by understanding how your team works today and what you want to accomplish.
From there, training is designed around the issues that matter most to you, whether that’s communication, trust, leadership, navigating change, or simply helping a strong team work even better together.
The goal isn’t to learn the Enneagram. The goal is to use it for growth: to understand what’s working, recognize what’s getting in the way, and make intentional changes that help the team work better together.
Let’s Talk About Your Team
You don’t need to know which training your team needs before we talk. We’ll start with where your team is today, what you want to accomplish, and where you see opportunities for growth.
From there, we’ll design an approach that fits your team.
First
Schedule a call to discuss your team's needs and customize trainings.
Next
Everyone on your team will experience Enneagram Foundations and discover their types.
Then
We’ll build a training plan designed to help your team apply and integrate the Enneagram where it matters.
Team Training Options
Every team is different. Training is tailored to where your team is today, what you want to accomplish, and the areas where greater awareness can make the biggest difference.
One Training Session
Start with one focused session: Enneagram Foundations. Your team will build greater awareness of themselves and each other and leave with practical insights they can immediately apply when they work together.
Team Development Series
Go deeper by combining Enneagram foundations with training focused on the areas most relevant to your team. Our most popular package includes 5 workshops.
Example: Enneagram Foundations + targeted workshops
Leadership & Team Development
Combine team training with deeper development for leaders.
Example: Customized team workshops + leadership development + individual coaching
These are starting points not fixed packages. We’ll work together to build training tailored to your team, your goals, and where you want to grow.
