Happier At Work® 225: Enneagram Integration for Business Success with Ali Dunn
Do you want to gain more insight into the enneagram and how it impacts your happiness at work?
In this week's episode, I sat down with leadership and Enneagram coach, Ali Dunn, for a deep dive into self-awareness, team dynamics, and the quest for workplace happiness.
Ali shares the importance of stepping outside our comfort zones for self-expression and growth.
For Ali, true happiness in the workplace means being surrounded by people who share aligned values and a common purpose, along with the freedom to explore new ideas.
We discussed how different Enneagram types influence team dynamics and conflict resolution. Ali emphasises that self-awareness and understanding others' motivations are crucial for effective teamwork.
We also talked about the specific motivations and core fears associated with each type, from originality and understanding to security and control.
The main points:
- The balance between striving for excellence and embracing imperfections.
- Understand how knowing your own and others' Enneagram types can foster better collaboration and conflict resolution.
- Continuous learning and self-awareness are vital in achieving both personal and professional growth.
- The importance of personal insights and strengths in coaching and business success.
Tune in to uncover how Enneagram avoidant traits might relate to psychological attachment styles and how family dynamics shape our behaviors.
