Many people find that understanding personality type helps them navigate life with greater ease. A sophisticated and powerful system for self-understanding and personal development, the Enneagram is used worldwide as an effective tool in psychology, couple's work, spiritual development and business.
The Enneagram reveals that all people belong to one of nine major personality types. The purpose of the Enneagram is not to put you into a box, but to help you identify both the strengths and the limitations of a preferred strategy and to give you guidance on how you may develop more capacity through and beyond it. And of course it is a tool for understanding others too: partners, spouses, kids, friends, colleagues, etc. In this program you will get an introduction to the three primary instincts and nine personality styles in Enneagram theory today, along with guidance on your own placement within the system.
Men from all walks of life come to these programs.
Husbands, partners, dads, uncles, grandads, sons, brothers, nephews, friends.

Summons
Keep me from going to sleep too soon
Or if I go to sleep too soon
Come wake me up. Come any hour
Of night. Come whistling up the road.
Stomp on the porch. Bang on the door.
Make me get out of bed and come
And let you in and light a light.
Tell me the northern lights are on
And make me look. Or tell me clouds
Are doing something to the moon
They never did before, and show me.
See that I see. Talk to me till
I’m half as wide awake as you
And start to dress wondering why
I ever went to bed at all.
Tell me the walking is superb.
Not only tell me but persuade me.
You know I’m not too hard persuaded.
--Robert Francis

I enjoyed the use of the enneagram as a reference and expanding my knowledge of it to gain a vocab and insights and all that... but being in the group of men and getting to know them over time was also enjoyable. The more exposure I had to them while looking through the lens of the enneagram I had a better sense of who they really were and could connect deeper after just having met them. (Jack, 9)
I appreciated the broad overview of the Enneagram types and the opportunity to hear everyone's personal experience and how it related to his type. Since the concepts were relatively new to me, it was a good primer. I also felt the teaching team created a courageous space for participants to stretch themselves and practice vulnerability. (Glenn, 7)
Seeing all the different faces and being surprised when those individuals spoke with self-reflection, with ideas for their future work, and a respect for others in the group. It also taught me that my assumptions and profiling can be more inaccurate than I thought and reinforces my work in trusting that my scanning of the environment as a SelfPres Type Six is not always accurate, and that inaccuracy applies to more areas than I may think. (Kirk, 6)
I enjoyed most: “Being" with like minded Men who are open to deep personal growth work; and finding myself in a relational community of men that created positive energy, space for psychological safety, vulnerability which created openness, trust, respect, courage, non-judgement, empathy, willingness to show up and be seen despite uncertain outcomes. To listen and acknowledge the rich, power of "Story" from each man, including of myself. (Will, 2)
I am glad to be part of your community. I am really enjoying and benefiting from the time. I appreciate your wisdom, insight and unique lens on to each of the Types. As a lifelong student of how archetypes are and have been represented in the arts, I find your knowledge and contributions to be fantastic! Thanks… (David, 4)
