As we, the presenters, live and work in South Florida, we will have the rare opportunity to bring many of our students to participate with us. The two fundamental tools we have found to work well with this age group are the [...]

The Holy Ideas of the Enneagram are in service to the alleviation of suffering and the recovery of our true nature through remembering our Essence qualities. The Holy Ideas remind us of who we truly are beyond our attachments and identification with the construct of the egoic mind. As we observe our attachments and defense of the ego we [...]

The Enneagram is a superb diagnostic tool to use in conjunction with whatever other techniques one uses in coaching. It does not displace other approaches, but refines and specifies what motivations and unconscious agendas are probably also at play. When coaching techniques and strategies are conscious, the Enneagram can provide the unconscious or partially conscious agenda and focus that [...]

The adaptive value of human violence is rapidly disappearing. Only the unexamined root causes and cure keep humans hostage to violence. How by expanding our moral imagination can we become peace makers in real time? In our daily lives? Here we will present John Paul Lederach's blueprint for peacemaking along with David's work culminating in his book Violence and [...]

The interaction, used in some of the EPTP trainings, is a valuable development instrument to help people improve their understanding of themselves and their important relationships. It involves the person verbally interacting with a representative of the same Type as the person with whom they would like to improve their relationship. Since sometimes a person is either unable to [...]

As everyone is aware, we are constantly bombarded with more and more information--although we usually have no way to make sense of things or to see relationships among elements. The ever-mounting cascade of data does not usually result in real understanding of what is happening, much less of having true insight. We need a way to get above the [...]

In this workshop, participants recall experiences from their childhoods that bother them. It may not have entered their minds to imagine their attitudes or responses as having been otherwise because habits have become so engrained since the event, and the usefulness of doing so may not have occurred to them. (This works for guilt-producing or fearful experiences, as well [...]

This presentation shows how the Twelve Steps, the Enneagram, and Centering Prayer are used together to enhance and stabilize recovery, and to bring about the very spiritual experience that all three tools were designed for. The personality (or false self) is a survival strategy--what we created to survive in the world--and to satisfy what Centering Prayer's architect, Thomas Keating [...]

When you teach the Enneagram, you have to share a lot of information with your students. But that doesn't mean it has to be a long, dull lecture! Adults learn best when they are actively engaged in the learning process. And they learn even better when they are having fun doing it. So come explore (or share!) some creative, [...]

I have typed many folks over the last 6 years and I have learned some "tricks of the trade" that help serious Enneagram practitioners avoid the pitfalls of typing. In this session, I will emphasize: (1) how body language can be indicative of certain types; (2) how to get people to establish rapport while getting clues about their type; [...]

We are at a choice-point: of crisis and opportunity; of chaos and reordering; of localism and globalism; of the individual and the collective; of regression and transformation. For this to happen, we have to be and do differently. We will either survive and thrive together or.... Each of us has a contribution to make, a role to play in [...]

"The qualities within our own Essence are Divine Attributes. It is because the Divine Compassion exists to reveal itself to us that there exists the possibility of knowing the infinite by knowing ourselves and of knowing the particular divine Attribute we most exemplify." Living Presence: Kabir Helminski To know our Self it is vital that we uncover the soul's [...]

Over the years a number of practitioners have successfully combined the Enneagram with other existing disciplines. Many have developed new techniques for working with students and clients to address the dilemmas of each Enneagram style. In this panel we will explore the most effective approaches and methods – psychological, spiritual, and experiential – favored by our group of seasoned [...]

Historically we have understood the Enneagram to be part of an ancient spiritual system. Many of the ideas considered elemental in Enneagram work, such as the sacred geometry and meaning of the diagram itself, the three centers, self-observation, presence and self-remembering, were part of a body of knowledge grounded in the roots of the Western tradition, but with many [...]

Change is the only constant; nothing stays the same. Even as we maintain our inner view of the world, the outer world keeps changing. We move away from home, fall in love, start families, make careers. Children are born, friends die, we change jobs or remarry. Outside us the seasons come and go in a cycle of renewal and [...]

Although some believe the Enneagram's spiritual aspects are split off from the work we do with the Enneagram in organizational settings, this session will directly debunk that duality myth. Engage, learn and practice a series of activities that explicitly access the spiritually transformative aspects of the Enneagram. We'll be working with the "higher states" for each type, walking and [...]

Each Enneagram style has sweet spots where there is a clarity of vision, an intuitive edge. We look for what we value, what is important to us. Each style also has blind spots, some aspects of ourselves, others, and the world that we overlook but that others see more easily. And each style has hot spots, vulnerabilities that are [...]

Culture change occurs when people in an organization acknowledge that they need to change the way in which they work together to more effectively support the organization's success and progress. Although recognized as an approach in supporting people to better understand their own drives and motivations and resulting behaviors, the Enneagram also provides a sound base from which to [...]

Today's preoccupation with contemporary architecture is reflected in the frequent media attention given to buildings designed by superstar architects such as Frank Gehry, Norman Foster and Rem Koolhaas. In earlier ages men erected cathedrals, palaces, government buildings and monuments to represent their beliefs and to express the essentials of their culture. These historic periods that gave birth to the [...]

We are constantly feeling; we are always experiencing an emotion. Thousands of stimuli present themselves to our awareness, second by second; our emotional state influences and sometimes even forces which stimuli we notice and which we overlook. We are usually unaware of this process and the power that our emotions have. Our emotions literally orchestrate a process that either [...]

What if you viewed resistance as a crucial catalyst for individual and collective transformation? What if you cooperated with opposing forces in order to birth a third, reconciling force? Cooperation and participation require a shift in states in which we relax into resistance through three-centered grounded Presence and Love. We then enter into relationship with resistance and can observe [...]

Objective: To show how some practical theatrical tools can facilitate the discovering and the internalization of the [...]

As the Enneagram becomes more and more relevant and widespread in business and organizational settings, many Enneagram professionals are grappling with the challenge of languaging a secular, non-spiritual, commercially appealing Enneagram. How do we present Enneagram material in secular and business environments, as distinct from a metaphysical or psycho-spiritual growth context? How do we define ‘spirituality' for our purposes? [...]

One in one hundred American adults is incarcerated. Though we know through the Enneagram that our personality creates a prison of our own making, ironically, as a society we collectively dismiss these human beings, and in so doing participate in an incredible waste of human potential. Diane Pendola and Susan Olesek share a passion for teaching the Enneagram as [...]

Tom Condon will work with several audience members who want to change an Enneagramrelated problem, using therapeutic methods customized to their specific Enneagram style.
