- 90. Enneagram for Entrepreneurs: Build an Aligned Business by Studying These 9 PiecesI'm guessing if you're listening to this one, you have a business that you started around something you love or a cause you're passionate about. But, over time that love and passion have been known to fade because of all the other things that are required of you to run a successful business. That light for your business can start to dwindle and instead of inspiring you, it can start to drain you. Part of this is just the normal ebb and flow of running a business. And part of it might because there are certain things out of alignment with your personality, interests and strengths. The more you know about yourself and your entrepreneur style, the more ease and enjoyment you can put back into your business. In this episode, you'll learn 9 pieces of the Enneagram to dig into more to uncover specific parts of how your type and your work and creator style can overlap to create a business that fits into your whole life, not the other way around. 1. Insight about your sales style 2. Alignment around what you sell and how you deliver it 3. Specific challenges based on your Center of Intelligence 4. Understanding the energy you bring to going after what you want and getting your needs met using Stances 5. What stress looks like for you and what to do about it 6. What growth looks like for you and when to celebrate wins 7. Better understand you clients and customers using conflict style insight 8. What reoccurring obstacle you may be running into based on your specific type 9. What unhelpful message you'll need to work to turn down the volume on based on your type's Childhood Message > Other specific application episodes: 3 Ways to Use the Enneagram in Your Job Search: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/using-the-enneagram-in-your-job-search 9 Practical Ways Leaders and Managers Can Use the Enneagram: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/how-managers-and-leaders-can-use-the-enneagram > Additional Resources: Enneagram and Sales Video - Full Overview of Each Type: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcsWR1iq0co&feature=youtu.be Download Your Enneagram Type Guidebook: https://www.enneagrammba.com/resources Download your quick reference Enneagram guide: https://www.enneagrammba.com/cheatsheet0 comments0
- 89. The Skills and Strengths that Can Sabotage a New Leader with Jodi Flynn | Women Taking the Lead | Type 3You've probably heard the saying, "What got you here, won't get you there." In this interview episode with leadership consultant, executive coach, host of the Women Taking the Lead podcast, keynote speaker, and Type 3, Jodi Flynn, you'll learn one of the biggest mistakes new leaders make, especially women, that can leave them overworked and questioning if they are cut out for this new level of leadership. It has to do with letting go of the mentality of success that got you this promotion because it no longer works at this level. You'll learn how to avoid this mistake (it happens to the best of this!) and instead how to set yourself up as a sustainable, successful leader that has a full life in and out of work. When you listen in, you'll also hear from Jodi on: important questions to consider like "what does it look like to hit a wall?" the power of good enough when it's okay not to bring your A-Game why the workplace isn't always set up for women to get and succeed in a promotion one thing that can sabotage new leaders - and what to do about it signs it's time for a break - and how to know you're ready to come back when you might need to reset your podcast to better align with your business the impact a podcast can have on your sales strategy dealing (or avoiding!) hard feelings as a Type 3 finding joy outside of accomplishment as a Type 3 Learn more about how Jodi helps women in the workplace: https://womentakingthelead.com/ Connect with Jodi on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodiflynn/ Read Jodi's book, Accomplished: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3LH7S0 Listen to Jodi's podcast: https://womentakingthelead.com/podcast/ 🤳 Are you and I connected on social media yet?

- 88. A 2-Question Enneagram Test and How You'll Know When You Find Your TypeWhat if you could start to uncover your Enneagram type, or help someone else start to uncover their Enneagram type, in just 2 questions? With the holidays coming up I thought this would be a fun and practical episode to share in case you wanted to nerd out and share the Enneagram with your family and friends. While tests can be anywhere from 60-90% accurate, they can be a great starting point when you're new to the Enneagram. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There is a 144-question typing test that I use during my Know Your Number "Enn-Focus" Typing Sessions. It takes about 30 minutes to complete with about an 80% accuracy, so there's still some additional digging needed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But, if you're not ready for that yet, there is the 2-question Riso-Hudson QUEST Test will help you narrow down your type in less than five minutes with about a 70% accuracy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ TEST RULES When you go thru the questions: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1) Select just one paragraph in the following two groups that best reflects your general attitude and behaviors as you have been for most of your life. Remember we have all 9-types inside of us, but one particular style is our "home base." 2) You do not have to agree completely with every word or statement in the paragraph you select. You may only agree with 80-90%. You should, though, agree with the general philosophy of the paragraph - don't pick it just because of a single world or phrase. 3) Do not overanalyze your choices! Go with your gut. TAKE THE TEST HERE: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/enneagramtest ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How will you know when you've finally discovered your type? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ --> You will just know - waves of relief and embarrassment and excitement will wash over you. --> Things that you have always known unconsciously about yourself will suddenly become clear and patterns will emerge. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💡 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Self-discovery is a process, and that the process does not end with discovering your type - really, it's just the beginning! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀. ✨ ☕Find additional podcast, book, and quiz recommendations here: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/how-to-find-your-enneagram-type 🎙️Listen to "A Crash Course into the 9 Enneagram Types" podcast episode: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/overview-of-the-9-enneagram-types 🎧Listen to "Your Second Most Important Enneagram Type" podcast episode: https://www.enneagrammba.com/blog/enneagram-in-stress 📙Download Your Type Specific Guidebook https://www.enneagrammba.com/resources 🎁Choose Your Black Friday BOGO Deal! https://www.enneagrammba.com/black-friday-2022 Download your quick reference Enneagram guide: https://www.enneagrammba.com/cheatsheet0 comments0
- 87. 3 Ways to Use the Enneagram in Your Job SearchAre you on the hunt for your next career? Maybe you're fed up with where you've been. Or maybe you're getting back into the job market after being at home parenting kids, taking care of a parent, or healing from a health issue. Regardless, of why you're ready, this episode's intention is to help you get ready by focusing on three parts of the job search process and how to apply the Enneagram in each one: 1) Prework: Getting Clear on a Direction Study yourself, understand what's not working in your current role, what is that you'd like to take with you, and what you would prefer in the next chapter using insight and information taken from your Enneagram type. This is foundational for setting a clear path as to what role would be a great fit for you, what type of company culture you prefer, and what type boss would bring out the best in you. 2) Writing a More Accurate and Effective Resume Drop the "hardworking" and "positive attitude" characteristics and use the Enneagram to validate and embrace your natural strengths (not everyone has them!), give you clear and meaningful language to explain your past experiences, and effectively communicate what makes you unique. 3) Getting Your Questions Answered During the Interview Take advantage of getting to ask questions at the end of your interview and ensure you get valuable information from them by asking specific questions about your role, your working environment, company culture and your manager's priorities and communication/leadership style to help you more clearly see what's a "heck yes!" and what might be "not a good fit" based on how those things overlap and compliment (or drain) your energy.

- 81. Applying Personality Assessments in Real Life with Heidi Dexter | Type 7 [Part 6 in Personality Assessments at Work Series]When you think of the traits that make up your personality, are you viewing them as all the things that are "wrong with you?" Often times in my own personal experience and Enneagram teaching experience, the more we learn about ourselves it's the "negative" qualities we tend to focus on first. Inside this final episode of the Personality Assessments at Work Series, you'll hear from Heidi Dexter, Type 7w8, head of customer experience at Beauty Culture Med Spa, and self-growth student on how she's shifted her thinking over the years from personality deficiencies to her personality strengths - and some things for you to think about to do the same. Over the last 5 episodes you've heard about different personality assessments to help you better understand yourself, and others, at work: 360 Reviews - ep. 76 The Kolbe - ep. 77 CliftonStrengths - ep. 78 The DiSC - ep. 79 Fascinate - ep. 80 When you listen in to episode 81 you'll hear Heidi sharing how she's applied what she's learned from her personality assessments (some of them being new ones you haven't heard of before!) both at work with her team and clients and in her relationships as a spouse and parent. You'll also get some additional insight on life as a Type 7 with that 8 wing energy that you can use to narrow down your own Enneagram type or better understand someone in your life with that 7 energy.

- 79. Building Better Relationships at Work Using DiSC with Nancy Marmolejo | Type 7 [Personality Assessments Series]Would you describe your preferred working style as dominating, influencing, steady, or conscientious? Maybe a blend of two? The DiSC assessment can compliment what you've learned about yourself through the Enneagram by sharing both validating insights and and new perspectives about your preferences and tendencies. Like the Enneagram, it should be used for dialogue, not a diagnosis. To help us jumpstart that conversation and be able to use and apply the DiSC to our own personal growth journey and relationships at work, we have DiSC certified, leadership trainer, and owner of Talent and Genius, Nancy Marmolejo on the show today. Inside Part 4 of our Personality Assessment Series, you'll learn about what DiSC is and the 4 main styles within the framework: The D (Dominance) Style prioritizes getting immediate results, taking action, challenging themselves and others and is motivated by power and authority, competition, winning, and success (sound familiar Type 8s and 3s? :) ) The i (Influence) Style prioritizes expressing enthusiasm, taking action, encouraging collaboration and is motivated by social recognition, group activities, and friendly relationships (Type 7 anyone?)) The S (Steadiness) Style prioritizes giving support, maintaining stability, enjoying collaboration and is motivated by stable environments, sincere appreciation, cooperation, and opportunities to help (sensing some Type 2, 6, and 9 - What do you think?) The C (Conscientiousness) Style prioritizes ensuring accuracy, maintaining stability, challenging assumptions and is motivated by opportunities to use expertise or gain knowledge and attention to quality (hearing some Type 1 and event Type 5 in there?). The only Enneagram type that I didn't see a direct DiSC Style correlation with was the Type 4 (which you probably appreciate :)), but what do you think? Where do you see this energy show up on the DiSC? And more importantly, where do you see yourself? How does that overlap (or not!) with your Enneagram type?

- 77. What the Kolbe Tells You About How to Grow a Business Your Way with Elizabeth Cook, Type 6 [Personality Assessments Series]When it comes to data and information, are you a bottom line person who prefers a quick answer or do you like to get (and share) all the details? To accomplish a goal and get through a project, do you prefer a lot of structure and processes or do you more often find yourself winging it along the way and more flexible in your approach?

- 76. Getting to Know Yourself Better Using 360 Reviews, Tara Nesser, Type 7 [Personality Assessments for Work Series]Experts tell us that our unconscious mind makes a majority of our decisions. Which means, most of the time, we're cruising through life on autopilot. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. It would be impossible to be constantly "awake" to every thought, feeling, and behavior. We absolutely need autopilot turned on. The problem happens when our autopilot never gets a tune up. Left unchecked, these blind spots, or unconscious biases, can end up steering your life, possibly in a direction you don't want to be going in. Identifying these blind spots is the first step to course correcting, but doing it on your can be difficult - hence the name - "blind spot." :) So, what do you do then? Getting feedback from others can be tremendously helpful in uncovering where you might be running on autopilot in a way that's not serving you, and also what strengths you have you may not realize you have. Our guide today for learning more about how to get feedback from trusted sources and conduct a productive 360 Review (and how absolutely not to do one), is Level Up Talent CEO and Founder, Tara Nesser. Inside this interview with Tara you'll learn so much about being a new or emerging leader including: common challenges new leaders face and how to navigate around them the importance of self-awareness as a growing leader why she focuses on both strategy and mindset in her leadership coaching what life and leading is like with the Type 7 energy Tune in to this first episode in the Personality Assessments at Work Series and let Tara know what you're taking away with you!

- 75. Leading From Where You Are with Fan Experience Consultant and Career Coach, Jahaan Blake, Type 2When you hear the word leader what comes to mind? Is it a person in a power suit leading from the front of a room? Maybe someone leading a big team, inside a big corporation? Leading as an owner of a business? Leading a large community online or from a big stage? I'm going to guess, if you're like a lot of people, the initial image wasn't of yourself. Maybe because you don't have the title or a team yet, or you don't own a business, or because you don't have "that many" people in your community yet. Or maybe people you just don't feel like you have the personality for it. Whatever the reason you may not feel like a leader (yet!), inside today's episode you'll learn how to start operating with a leader mentality and leading from wherever you are this minute.

- 71. Am I an Enneagram Type 3 or Type 7?The Enneagram Type 3 is known as the Achiever, the Performer, or the Role- Model, striving to feel outstanding, accomplished, and successful. The Enneagram Type 7 is known as the Multi-tasker or the Enthusiast, striving to feel excited, satisfied, and fulfilled. These two types are common "look-alikes" that can get confused by their energetic personalities, future focus, forward moving energy, and positive outlook on life. They both love a good plan, but for different reasons, and both can juggle multiple projects and can get bored easily. There's also some key differences that you'll learn about in this episode, including each type's: effort around focusing motives behind planning relationship with options and limits ability to see a project through core driver behind their job or business If you know of someone else that might be helped by this, please share!

- 69. Behind the Scenes of the Enneagram MBA Makeover: Using Your Enneagram Type to Align Your Business or CareerHave you been thinking about a change in your career? Or a pull in a new direction with your business? Inside this unofficial Season 2 finale... For the curious, you'll hear about some of the reasoning behind the recent changes to the Enneagram MBA brand - from the colors, to new offers, from a new website, to the social media strategy. And for anyone looking to make changes in their own career, business, or life in general, tune in to hear about the specific pieces of my type (7) and subtype (Social or Navigating) I used to let go of some old ways and more confidently embrace and move forward in a more aligned direction. I hesitate to say "new" or "pivot" because these changes feel more like a natural evolution, but the insight I took into consideration with the Enneagram helping me hold up a mirror, made me more confident about the changes and the timing. Even if we have different Enneagram types and subtypes, the intention for this episode is A) give you insight into the brand and what to expect so you can decide to stick around or not (of course I hope you do!) and B) to further study your own dominant type and subtype to see what clarity and direction they might offer in your own upcoming changes.

- 68. Am I an Enneagram Type 7 or Type 9?The Enneagram Type 7 is known as the Multi-tasker or the Enthusiast, striving to feel excited, satisfied, and fulfilled. The Enneagram Type 9 is known as the Peacemaker or the Harmonizer, striving to feel peaceful and calm, both internally and with the world around them. They are two of the most optimistic types on the Enneagram, typically choosing to avoid hard feelings and difficult conversations, but for different reasons. Both of these types tend to embellish reality more than the other types, perceiving things better than they really are. But, with those similarities, there are also key differences that you'll hear about in this episode to help you narrow it down between the two, including: the different type of optimism each type expresses how they view interruptions handling distractions their orientation to time getting their needs met If you know of someone else that might be helped by this, please share!
