Enneagram Explanation
The Enneagram is a personality system that describes nine core personality types, each with its own motivations, fears, and ways of interacting with the world. It is often used for self-discovery, personal growth, and improving relationships.
How It Works
The Enneagram is based on a nine-pointed diagram, with each number representing a different personality type. These types are connected in specific ways, showing how people may change under stress or growth.
Each type is shaped by:
- Core Motivation – What drives a person’s actions and decisions.
- Core Fear – What a person most wants to avoid.
- Strengths & Weaknesses – The natural tendencies and challenges each type faces.
The Nine Types
While each person is unique, the Enneagram suggests that people primarily identify with one of these nine types:
- The Reformer – Principled, perfectionistic, and idealistic.
- The Helper – Caring, generous, and people-pleasing.
- The Achiever – Ambitious, adaptable, and success-oriented.
- The Individualist – Creative, sensitive, and introspective.
- The Investigator – Analytical, curious, and independent.
- The Loyalist – Loyal, responsible, and security-focused.
- The Enthusiast – Adventurous, spontaneous, and fun-loving.
- The Challenger – Strong, assertive, and protective.
- The Peacemaker – Easygoing, agreeable, and conflict-avoidant.
Why People Use It
The Enneagram helps individuals understand themselves and others better, leading to:
✅ Personal growth – Recognizing patterns and overcoming limitations.
✅ Better relationships – Understanding how others think and feel.
✅ Workplace improvement – Enhancing teamwork and communication.
Unlike some personality systems that focus just on behavior, the Enneagram goes deeper, exploring why people act the way they do. It is widely used in psychology, business, coaching, and personal development.
