What is the Enneagram? It is a system which helps you to understand personality and motivation. The Enneagram is a system which transcends race, ethnicity, gender, age and socioeconomic status. It teaches why we behave the way we do, how we learn and the 9 ways of looking at the world that make us who we are. This makes the enneagram different from other forms of psychometric or personality testing. The focus is on how YOU interact with others, not how THEY interact with you
