Are you a helper or an achiever? A challenger or a peacemaker? Awareness to Action explores the nine distinct, yet interconnected personality types of Enneagram theory, which uses a nine-pointed figure to illustrate the relationship between an individual’s dominant personality and the other types that comprise the structure. Mario Sikora and Robert Tallon explain the characteristics of each personality and show how a person can capitalize on their strengths and weaknesses, charting a specific course for personal growth. They discuss practical topics such as relationship building, conflict resolution, and personal development, information that will not only be of interest to individuals seeking a greater understanding of self, but to managers and human resource professionals as well.

People with all sorts of personalities can be successful at work. There are successful introverts and successful extroverts, successful optimists and successful pessimists. Our personality style doesn’t determine our success, and while it is often the source of many of our strengths, it can create blind spots and obstacles that can hold us back.The value of personality models is that they give a framework for leveraging strengths and more-quickly recognizing blind spots and obstacles. A good model can also pro- vide us with roadmaps for overcoming them.No model of personality styles does those things better than the Enneagram.“Enneagram” literally refers to a diagram with nine intersecting lines creating nine points enclosed in a circle (“ennea” is Greek for nine, “gram” for drawing). This diagram is used to represent nine personality styles and the interrelationships among those styles.There are two dimensions of personality de- scribed by the Enneagram—our inherent system of instinctual values and the nine strategies we use to satisfy those values. In other words, the Enneagram helps us understand what is important to people and how they go about getting those things that are important to them.Most approaches to the Enneagram focus more on the nine strategies—thus the “ennea”—and view the instinctual values as a secondary matter. At Awareness to Action International we understand that both dimensions—the strategies and the instinctual biases—are important and focus equally on both of them.

Mario Sikora and Maria Jose Munita are executive coaches and leadership-development consultants who have used the Enneagram to help their clients master the human side of business. Here for the first time, they share descriptions of all of the 27 subtypes according to the Awareness to Action Approach to the Enneagram. This approach to the subtypes and the three instinctual biases--Preserving, Navigating, and Transmitting--is based on experience with clients at all levels, from front-line workers to CEOs, in companies of all kinds on five continents. This experience includes conducting 360 assessments on hundreds of leaders and observing the consistent pattern of expression of the instinctual biases that they discuss in this book.This unique and timely book provides not only descriptions of the subtypes, but a framework that can be used to help leaders (and those who advise them):*Identify potential structural or organizational vulnerabilities of their company or teams and devise solutions to overcome those vulnerabilities; *Improve communication and collaboration, and implement cultural changes; and*Remove barriers to improving individual performance. While the 27 subtypes of the Enneagram have been of quickly growing interest in the field, this approach to them takes a unique perspective. It is a perspective grounded in over two decades of practical application in the business world and consistent with what we know through cognitive science and evolutionary psychology. This short book provides a foundation of fundamental concepts without delving too much into the theory underlying those concepts, and provides a framework with which readers can explore and implement those concepts.

Instinctual Leadership: Working with the 27 Subtypes of the Awareness to Action Enneagram

Nothing is more important than the ability to think well and clearly. In this "Post-Truth World," the consequences of not being able to think well are more dire than ever. "How to Think Well, and Why" uses the Awareness to Action Clear-Thinking Framework to identify five obstacles to clear thinking and five remedies for overcoming them.The five obstacles are: our built-in biases, personality, cultural influences, ignorance, and misinformation. The ATA Clear-Thinking Framework introduces a system of tools, concepts, skills, and attitudes for reducing these obstacles. It includes tools for recognizing our cognitive biases, our flawed logic, and the influence of our Enneagram personality style on how we filter our experiences. This book was written with the author's sons in mind, because these skills are so critical for young people to develop. However, as an executive coach and leadership-development consultant, Sikora also provides insights into how leaders can apply these principles to become more effective. In fact, everyone can benefit from reading this book--and the reader will never see the world in the same way.
