Unlock your potential as a leader and help your organization and team thrive.

Whether you are a solo entrepreneur or an executive leader working with a large staff team, your ability to navigate the complexity of leadership is directly related to how well you know yourself and are able to have a skilful response in the big and small decisions and interactions that you’re confronted with.

The Enneagram is an industry-proven tool that supports leaders and teams to become more self-aware and helps create deep understanding, and synergy for healthier, happier ways of working together.

The goal of this professional development workshop is to gain valuable information and experiential learning that will support the important work you do. You’ll be joined by other local leaders in both the profit and non-profit space, and can enjoy the connection and networking over the course of the day.

The content of the sessions will be designed for those who are brand new to the Enneagram, and for those who are more seasoned, advanced, and knowledgeable. Everyone will walk away with a deeper understanding of themselves as a leader and tangible next steps to elevate how you work.

The workshop will include:

  • Understanding the foundational concepts of the Enneagram as a tool for personal and leadership development.
  • Digging into the nine types without drowning in overwhelm.
  • Address where the Enneagram comes from, and how it differs from other typology and personality assessments used in the organizational development space.
  • Highlight the strengths and blind spots of each type and as a result what each type needs to “win at work”.
  • Learn how to work with difficult and challenging personalities and receive tools to get on the same page.
  • Discover the basic fears and coping strategy of each type in order to see how they limit your leadership and the healthy function of your team.
  • Learning about the “laws of behaviour” and a transformational model that you can use as you feel triggered in certain situations that diminish your leadership.
  • Learn how the Enneagram can be used as a rich development experience for you and your teams in the future.

The schedule and pace of the day will also offer meaningful times of personal reflection, ample opportunity to ask questions, networking with other leaders, delicious food, and the relaxing environment of the Ignatius Jesuit Centre.

The workshop will be facilitated by Christa Hesselink, a certified Enneagram practitioner and coach.  Christa’s signature approach centres on creating professional, compelling experiences that invite individuals and teams to slow down, reconnect with their inner selves, and discover their inherent strength and resilience.

She holds a Masters of Leadership and Masters of Theology and has a rich background in higher education, non-profit development, and church ministry. Christa brings a unique blend of leadership expertise and empathy to her work.
