First off, what the eff is an enneagram?
"The Enneagram of Personality, or simply the Enneagram, is a model of the human psyche which is principally understood and taught as a typology of nine interconnected personality types."
Okay, but what does it mean TO YOU?
For me, it meant understanding and accepting my personality traits not as a bad thing, but as a part of who I am. Knowing helps me navigate relationships, business adventures, my leadership style, and more.
Trust me, when I first heard about this I thought it was a load of crap. However, the more "tests" I take and the more information I read, it has really helped me develop lifestyle strategies!
In business, knowing, not only my own personal number, but the enneagram numbers for my teammates have really helped me be an effective and productive team member and leader.
I encourage EVERYONE to learn what their number is at least, but it could also be beneficial to know your partner's number as well. If you are a part of a team, especially if you are a leader, then you should encourage your team to discover their numbers and report back to you so that you can learn to help them in the best ways!
