No matter where you are in the world, the Enneagram is there too.

The Enneagram system of personality types is now widely used in a variety of contexts, including business, psychotherapy, spiritual development work, the arts (literature and acting), education (including parenting), and medicine and healing.

Here are some of the ways practitioners in these areas use the Enneagram today:

  1. Business: To understand and improve individual and group behavior in work situations involving communication, team performance, leadership, conflict, and coaching.

  2. Psychotherapy: To provide clinicians with a clearer understanding of psychological processes and the unconscious patterns underlying human experience, relationships, suffering, healing, and growth; to design therapeutic interventions to correspond to different personality styles; to help individuals-through self-analysis-gain insights into their automatic habits of behavior, thoughts, and emotions.

  3. Spiritual Work: To provide a framework for clarifying the spiritual paths, tasks, biases, and practices most relevant and useful to individuals of the nine different Enneagram types.

  4. The Arts: To create more dimensional and credible characters in literature; to understand characterization in filmmaking and acting; to understand the creative processes of artists of the nine types.

  5. Education: To understand the specific strengths and challenges corresponding to each of the distinct personality types in order to tailor teaching to different styles of learning; to help parents improve their own parenting styles and learn how to most effectively parent children of the nine different types.

  6. Medicine and Healing: To use the insights of the Enneagram system to aid in health and healing by recognizing that each type has its own distinct challenges to maintaining a healthy physical and psychological self.
