THE ENNEAGRAM
SUCCESS STORY

Corporations have been using the Enneagram for hiring the best possible person for a particular job, for teaching executives to manage their employees more effectively, for improving customer service, for clarifying a corporate image — a corporate personality type, so to speak — or for building a more profitable sales force.

Team building, executive development, marketing, corporate communications, and conflict resolution — among its many applications — are all more effective when insights from the Enneagram are applied in the business world.

Major successful organizations that have used the Enneagram include Adobe, Al Italia Airlines, Amoco, AT&T, Boeing Corporation, eBay, General Mills, General Motors, Hewlett Packard, KLM Airlines, Prudential Insurance (Japan), Toyota, Weight Watchers International, and many more.
