Team Development with the Enneagram

Developing high performance in work units, project teams, committees, and task forces

In addition to boosting morale and improving work relationships, team development consulting also helps teams address other issues they may be facing — for example, team vision, goals, roles, strategy development, structure, conflict, and leadership.

The Enneagram is taught in one of two ways: (1) through individual interviews conducted prior to the facilitated team development session(s), or (2) to the entire team as part of the actual team development session(s). The insights of the Enneagram are integrated with organization development theory and practice during the session(s) as the team moves to high-performance. For an example of this integration, see the case study in Chapter 5 of Bringing Out the Best in Yourself at Work, "Creating High-Performing Teams."

Process:
     • Set objectives with team leader
     • Conduct team assessment
     • Review themes from assessment with leader
     • Facilitate team-development session(s)
     • Hold follow-up session(s) with team leader and/or team
