Prior to the abrupt worldwide life and work altering impact of the 2020 pandemic, our global businesses, leaders, and teams were already navigating the norm of constant change with varying effectiveness. Across industries, change is related to needed and steady innovation, new technologies and increasing connection personally and professionally across cultures and systems. Why have some leaders and organizations been more successful navigating pandemic change challenges? Our role as coaches and consultants supports awareness of potential communication, engagement and strategy strengths and blind spots that may impact best practice change leadership. Research supports the established relationship between individual personality and behavior impacting change management and change leadership. The Enneagram provides key insights to illuminate where clients may have opportunity to recommit, revise and reestablish their personal, and thereby influential, change readiness and resilience. This session introduces Nine Leader Ideals based on each Enneagram style as well as a suggested "frame" to support coaching and consulting strategies for change-related development.
