The Enneagram, as we know it today, is all about personhood. We use it to dissect personality, explain our psychodynamics and try to celebrate diversity. One of the IEA Founders will tell his Enneagram "story". As one of the early individuals to learn the "psychological model" of the Enneagram, developed and taught by Claudio Naranjo, MD, he studied a [...]
Most Enneagramers learned this insightful theory of personality by active participation in lengthy seminars. This has historically limited our audience to those willing to invest several days and considerable expense. This model of master-to-student total immersion favors searchers of esoteric wisdom ... but often alienates the casual learner. The essential components of the Enneagram are few and easy to [...]
Conflict is the inevitable consequence of personality. Each of us has a unique perspective that develops from the interaction of our genetic traits and our life experience. We learn to think, solve problems and communicate in a fashion that produces apparent results. But, the results can also produce conflict and hostility in others. This seminar presents an innovative approach [...]
Forget what you think you know about the origin of the Enneagram theory of personality! The author of the very first Enneagram textbook will share his extensive research, experiences and relationships with almost all of the original thinkers who evolved the theory. Drawn from nearly half-a-century of studying and teaching the Enneagram, O'Leary will present a step-by-step analysis of [...]

Human emotions add spice to life, nuance communication and enliven daily routine. Our feelings are a sixth sense. Evolving as essential survival tools, emotions are often problematic in contemporary life. The secret is learning how to use emotional energy to bring out your best self and become an effective leader. IQ takes second place to feeling savvy in measuring [...]
In this seminar participants will pursue the Enneagram Code, in a journey worthy of a Dan Brown novel. We will dissect the modern Enneagram into its components and trace the origin and development of each part of the theory. Sufis, medieval philosophers, modern cosmologists, psychics, mystics, psychologists, and psychiatrists have each made contributions. We will explore those ideas and [...]
Consultants electing to teach the Enneagram to their clients are often allotted insufficient time to assure the participants can type themselves correctly. This seminar will demonstrate a decades-proven method to convey the basics of the Enneagram theory in fourto-six hours of instruction and interaction. This method allows 75% of those attending to type themselves with a high degree of [...]
[NO RECORDING] Every book published with Enneagram in its title begins with a synopsis of the author's understanding of the origins and/or history of this theory of personality. This seminar attempts a more systematic analysis of the evolution of the ideas that constitute the Enneagram theory in the 21st century. As co-author of the first textbook on the Enneagram [...]
This seminar demonstrates how leaders of businesses and organizations can use the Enneagram to quickly analyze the causes of interpersonal friction between "negative" staff and their colleagues. Seminar will present a positive Enneagram focused on the gifted assets and attendant limitations of each type. A person becomes "negative" by misuse of his/her type's asset in an unsuitable situation. The [...]
Interviewing is more than matching candidates to a list of necessary job skills. It should be an opportunity to allow the interviewee to demonstrate his/her best qualities and how they will be maximized in the position requested. An insightful interviewer chooses the very best candidate for the job. This seminar presents a strategy to increase the quality of the [...]
[NO RECORDING] The Arrows within the circle of the Enneagram symbol are a later addition to Enneagram theory. Claudio Naranjo said they were a momentary insight/doodle used to answer a student's question. Many authors, including this presenter, use them to explain progress and regression in self-understanding and actualization. Spiritual direction, in the model of St. Ignatius Loyola, has its [...]
[NO RECORDING] An innovative approach to conflict resolution that has proven highly effective in consulting work with corporations and organizations. It combines the Harvard Law School strategy of Fisher & Ury (Getting To Yes, 1991) with insights into the Enneagram personality avoidance-defense dynamic described by Naranjo (Ennea-type Structures, 1990 & Character and Neurosis, 1994). Building on material presented, participants [...]
[NO RECORDING] Patrick O'Leary 2001 2001 IEA Global Conference Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

History repeatedly demonstrates the consequences of the correct/incorrect match of person and situation…of personality and challenge. This workshop will explore some of the reasons why a Kennedy becomes a legend and a Nixon becomes a disgrace. It will [...]
