Considerations for Leaders Using the Enneagram with a Young Team

In this episode, we're talking about why Enneagram results often feel less clear early in someone’s career, the most common mistakes leaders make when trying to apply personality tools with young employees, and what it actually looks like to use the Enneagram in a way that supports growth, confidence, and self-awareness. We'll cover: How young professionals are still forming identity and how that impacts workplace behavior and understanding "their type" Why Enneagram typing can feel fuzzy early in a career (and why that’s completely normal) The difference between using the Enneagram as a label vs. a conversation Common patterns I see in young teams (hustle, people-pleasing, perfectionism, overthinking, blending in) How to focus on stress and growth patterns instead of locking in a “number” How to use the Enneagram to build feedback skills, communication confidence, and self-trust Why curiosity and experimentation matter more than accuracy at this stage If you lead young professionals (or you are one!) this episode will help you use the Enneagram as a practical tool for understanding motivation, navigating pressure, and building healthier patterns early in your career. ****** Explore the self-led Enneagram workshop at: https://www.enneagrammba.com/enneagra...
