The future of leadership development will not be about building "horizontal capability" that is, the skills, abilities and behaviours needed to lead others. Rather, on how to learn, grow and change in the way in which they relate to, lead and engage others: their "vertical [...]
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 [...]
This interactive session will introduce the "Integrative Approach" through the application of the Enneagram to make sense of individual, team and organizational dynamics. By scaling our understanding of the system from microto macro-levels, the Enneagram's relevance as a sense-making framework is expanded to encompass more [...]
The goals of spiritual psychotherapy are to identify with one's Higher Self rather than the ego, to accept 100% responsibility for yourself and your life and to practice non attachment. The Enneagram, a powerful and dynamic personality system offers clear suggestions that help us understand [...]

Good communicators will often unconsciously match the verbal and nonverbal behavior of others, a practice called Pacing. Pacing was first observed in the behavior of effective therapists who use it to establish a quick working rapport with their clients. A skilled therapist will often mirror [...]
This session will provide a quick, efficient download of integral theory, the school of philosophy that seeks to integrate all of human wisdom into a radically inclusive worldview. Integral theory accommodates the gifts of all previous worldviews, including those which have been historically at odds: [...]
Personal and professional growth and development need not be complicated. While the Enneagram is a map of the psyche with many facets, it is possible to present the Enneagram in a way that is easy to learn, memorable, and simple without losing its power and [...]
The experience of stepping into someone else's shoes is often the closest we get to finding out what it's like to be them. EnneaMotion is an experiential approach to learning the Enneagram. By experiencing the energy of the different types, we gain insight and increased [...]
Part of each human being's path and struggle is the need to overcome obstacles so we can move our work and life forward with deliberate action. If we are growing and expanding, it's likely that where we place attention, and the actions we're taking, are [...]
We are at a critical shift point in human history. We hang in the balance, socially, economically, environmentally, spiritually, because we have disconnected from our personal and collective intelligence and guidance. We are currently on a path towards economic, social, and planetary unsustainability, violence, and [...]
This presentation will explore the impact of instinctual energy, separate from type, on relationships. The three major instincts (selfpreservation, social, and sexual) and the subtypes which are formed by them have a powerful impact on our style of relating because they reflect our fundamental values. [...]
What would it mean to you if you were to realize that two different personality systems were independently developed in different languages, different times, in different cultures, and that these systems came to very similar archetypal insights? How might this act as a confirmation for [...]
Opening to whom we truly are can require working through, not separating from, contractions from our true nature described by the Enneagram. Whether contractions arise in ongoing shadow and reactivity, trauma, disintegration or movement to integration, it is essential to have practices for transmuting them [...]
A Conversation by Young People about the Meaning of Death will be a panel of young people, all under the age of 35, using "The Enneagram of Death" as a jumping off place to discuss their feelings, thoughts, and attitudes about death and dying. I'll [...]

Learn how to use Tritype as a model for personal growth. Discover what each Enneagram Type revealed they need to feel supported in a therapeutic setting. Avoid common mistakes coaches and therapists can make with each Type and Tritype. Learn how Micro Expressions communicate more [...]
[NO RECORDING] In Hollywood films, it is the exception, rather than the rule, for movie characters to be explicitly written and performed true-to-type-Enneagram type, that is. It is even less common to see film characters faithfully represent and embody clear and distinct Enneagram Type and [...]
This workshop addresses the primary issues each Type must navigate to move up the Levels of Development to successful sobriety and an addiction-free life. Of great importance, and often not referenced in recovery circles, is the importance of the three instincts and how they affect [...]

These seminal artists are of three different [...]

Much is written about evolution, but the heart of the matter lies in the inner experience of people whose lives are broken open by change. In these times, we are literally and metaphorically annihilating one another over changing views of God. In this session, Leslie [...]
[NO RECORDING] Individuals of each enneatype have a particular relationship to their internal authority, but also to external power, influence, and authority.
