THE ENNEAGRAM AND LEADERSHIP: PERSONAL QUALITIES | PART 4 LEADERSHIP QUESTION FROM THE 2022 ENNEAGRAM IN ORGANIZATIONS GLOBAL SURVEY What level of improvement have you experienced in leadership-skill areas using the Enneagram? You can find the answers from the 2022 Enneagram in Organizations Global Survey, conducted online by the Enneagram in Business network and drawing nearly 800 respondents from 49 different countries. (https://lnkd.in/gntHeUbQ) A leader’s personal qualities are just as important as their ability to navigate the task and relationship roles they must demonstrate. In fact, a leader’s personal qualities help them find the right balance. Even more, effective, successful leaders demonstrate credibility, humility, empathy, connectedness and approachability. Leaders who work with the Enneagram particularly benefit in these three areas: becoming more empathic, exhibiting more integrity, and showing more humility. EMPATHY The 2022 Global Survey shows how strongly the Enneagram increases a leader’s empathy (78%). What is empathy? It’s the ability to both understand and experience the feelings of another person. In other words, you have to feel it yourself, even if you have not had the same experience. Empathy is not the same as identifying with another’s experience because you may not have had that experience. And even if you have had a similar situation in your own life, your reaction to it may not be the same as another person’s. Empathy is also not “putting yourself in someone else’s shoes,” although many people think of empathy this way. To continue with the shoe metaphor, you and the other person may wear entirely different-sized shoes. In psychological terms, “putting yourself in someone else’s shoes” is inviting you to project how you would feel in that situation. But, again, you are not that person. How does the Enneagram help with empathy? When we learn our Enneagram types and the other eight versions of being human, a big “ah ha” or insight is that we understand we are wired in nine different ways. This includes how we think, how we act, how we feel and what motivates or “drives” us. The Enneagram also helps us delve deeper into our own patterns, emotional patterns included. When we delve deeper into our own emotional responses, we often discover feelings we didn’t realize we had. As a result, our empathy for ourselves increases, while our empathy for others – without engaging in emotional projection – also increases. In other words, the Enneagram helps us open our hearts more so we can tune into others better.   Read the rest of the blog here: https://lnkd.in/gE_xRyY2 You can see the full results of the 2022 Enneagram in Organizations Global Survey https://lnkd.in/gk-Mjwsz Access the full blog library: https://lnkd.in/gtzNGkz #TheEnneagraminBusiness #gingerlapidbogda #enneagram

THE ENNEAGRAM AND LEADERSHIP: RELATIONSHIP ROLES | PART 3 LEADERSHIP QUESTION FROM THE 2022 ENNEAGRAM IN ORGANIZATIONS GLOBAL SURVEY What level of improvement have you experienced in relationship-based leadership skills using the Enneagram? You can find the answers from the 2022 Enneagram in Organizations Global Survey, conducted online by the Enneagram in Business network and drawing nearly 800 respondents from 49 different countries. (https://lnkd.in/gntHeUbQ) Leadership is complex and nuanced, requiring skills in multiple areas. In the context of relationships, leaders need to foster trust, inclusion, respect and candid communication, effective decision-making, productive conflict resolution, and high motivation. LEADERSHIP COMMUNICATION The 2022 Global Survey shows how strongly the Enneagram increases a leader’s ability to communicate. 78% of the respondents indicated this extraordinary level of contribution to leadership development. Why is this so? There are many ways, such as these. Leaders, just like everyone who learns and uses the Enneagram, discover how they are similar to others of their same type and how they are different from the other eight types. Once people know their types, Enneagram training usually helps people understand how their communication style impacts others and how to develop in this arena. For example, Ones communicate in clear and precise ways, but they also can appear critical of others, even when they are trying to not do so. It shows in their non-verbal behavior. Twos often engage by asking questions or using a soft vocal tone, but they have difficulty saying no, even if they might want to do so. Threes, for example, are often adept communicators, but far less so when they feel stressed or overworked. At these times, they can become abrupt. To augment a leader’s understanding of Enneagram-based communication styles even further, leaders need to learn the importance of being able to communicate from all three Centers of Intelligence: Head, Heart and Body. Why does this matter? Context or circumstance of the communication always matters. For example, whether the communication context involves emotional distress or a celebration, a leader needs to communicate from the heart. When communication involves taking action, leaders need to communicate from the Body or action-based Center. And when it comes to planning or idea generation, being able to communicate from the Head Center is essential. Depending on their Enneagram types, leaders may rely on one Center more than the others.

THE ENNEAGRAM AND LEADERSHIP: TASK ROLES | PART 2 What level of improvement have you experienced in leadership areas using the Enneagram? You can find the answers from the 2022 Enneagram in Organizations Global Survey, conducted online by the Enneagram in Business network and drawing nearly 800 respondents from 49 countries. (https://lnkd.in/gntHeUbQ) Leadership is complex and nuanced, and it requires adroitness in multiple areas. In relation to tasks, leaders need to provide purpose, direction, operational structure, roles within the team or organization, resource allocation, and clarity. The Enneagram does assist leaders in exploring how their Enneagram type influences the degree to which and how they, for example, define and communicate purpose and organizational direction. However, the Enneagram is most useful in helping leaders prove the clarity that often makes or breaks an organization or a team. What is leadership clarity and why is it so important? Leadership clarity is the ability to perceive things accurately, to understand what action then needs to be taken, and to communicate both in a clear and compelling way. Clarity is important because people need to understand the following: What they are supposed to be doing Why they are doing it How they need to do it When they need to get it done by Who needs to be involved How they need to be involved How will they know when they’ve been successful Without leadership clarity, none of the above areas get addressed in a coherent and aligned way. The Enneagram fosters leadership clarity (65%), but why and how? One way to explain this is through a focus on the three Centers of Intelligence – Head, Heart and Body – which we all have yet use differently depending on our Enneagram types. Through understanding and using the Enneagram, leaders learn, often through direct teaching but sometimes through more indirect learning, how they (1) currently use each Center of Intelligence; (2) might misuse or underuse each Center; (3) can gain greater access to the most productive uses of each Center; and (4) how to align these three intelligence centers. In other words, each Center of Intelligence has its own potential wisdom, and when leaders both understand themselves better and work on their deeper development using the Enneagram, they gain increased access to this greater and more aligned wisdom from the Three Centers. This is the main reason why the Enneagram fosters leadership clarity. There are, of course, other ways in which using the Enneagram in leadership development promotes leadership clarity.
