Use the power of the Enneagram to become a more effective, capable leader

The Enneagram at Work is the first audiobook to harness the insight of the Enneagram to transform leadership in today’s workplace. A veteran of the high-profile hospitality industry with two decades of experience working with the Enneagram, author Jim McPartlin has seen firsthand the way self-awareness can radically transform leadership, strengthen teams, and spark creative solutions. From giving and accepting criticism to fostering strong mentorships and managing conflict, The Enneagram at Work will give you invaluable tools for growing and thriving in your career.

For the longtime Enneagram fan or those who are just learning to identify their type, The Enneagram at Work helps listeners explore the full breadth of their type, becoming aware of their blindspots in the workplace and leaning into their strengths more fully. Each chapter includes actionable exercises and practices so that listeners can move from learning to doing and apply their insights in the real world.

About Sean Patrick Hopkins

A student of neuroscience, speech pathology, & theatre, Sean Patrick Hopkins has translated his understanding of human behavior & vocal performance into a career in storytelling. You can hear his voice on nearly 600 audiobooks spanning many genres, speaking the words of Stephen King, James Patterson, and Jean Shepherd; narrating alongside the likes of Tom Hanks, Patrick Stewart, and LeVar Burton; inhabiting the worlds of Star Wars, Marvel, Minecraft, & Halo; and enlivening the stories of multiple Nobel Prize winners, Stoker and Shirley Jackson Award winners, and a Pulitzer finalist. He's won the Audie Award, SOVAS Award, AudioFile Earphones Award, and Odyssey Honor.Sean’s narrative style is the vocal equivalent of the tragedy and comedy masks, finding nuance in naturalism, and humanity in heuristics. He thrives in the horror and humor genres, and finds vital overlap between the two. His favorite element of fiction is magical realism, and he believes it is this that elevates a story to speak beyond words directly to our souls. Sean met his wife, fellow narrator Patricia Santomasso, in a library, and they are proud parents of a superbly creative youngster who is valiantly carrying on the family storytelling tradition.

Admittedly I didn't know much about the enema gram concepts prior to reading this book and not sure I know much more after reading it. It is filled with name dropping and his uses strictly within the hotel, hospitality industry. Not a lot of correlation of the practical use of this method into indus......more
