More than a personality inventory.
The Enneagram of Personality is so much more than a personality inventory . . . it is a powerful tool for transformation. While most personality inventories measure behavior, the Enneagram seeks to discover our motivations. When we begin to understand what motivates our behavior, coupled with deepening our awareness, we can transform our lives and ASCEND to new levels of consciousness.
Ascend Enneagram from Pinnacle offers Enneagram training and coaching for individuals, teams and groups ready to reach new heights.

The Enneagram for Churches and Clergy
The Enneagram can be a powerful tool for pastors, ministry leaders, and church staff teams who want to take steps toward greater self-knowledge and more effective team communications. Whether you’re a pastor, age-group minister, chaplain, or denominational leader, you can benefit from Enneagram-informed coaching. Your Enneagram coach will guide you on a journey of self-discovery and help you reach your personal and professional goals. Or maybe you’re looking for a fun and engaging team training or staff development workshop either online or in-person. The Enneagram might be the perfect learning experience! You can use insights from the Enneagram for your next lay leadership retreat as well—your leaders will talk about their insights from the Enneagram for months or even years! The process begins with our certified Enneagram trainer leading your team members through an Enneagram type discovery process. Then you can go deeper into discovering communication styles for each type, as well as a more effective tool for giving and receiving feedback. Are you a denominational leader? Consider offering an Enneagram workshop for pastors as a part of their continuing education. You might just find that an Enneagram encounter can help individuals and groups grow in the way of compassion, empathy, and more effective communications within church staffs and teams.

TYPING INTERVIEW (ONLINE)
Because it takes a good bit of discernment, and because Enneagram inventories—even the best ones—are not 100% accurate, sometimes it can be difficult to know one’s Enneagram type. If that’s the case for you, consider an Enneagram Typing Interview with a certified Enneagram Trainer. The Typing Interview lasts about 75-minutes and includes a follow-up report with recommendations for further study and growth. Want to share your love of the Enneagram with a friend or loved one? Give them the gift of greater self-awareness with an Enneagram Typing Interview!
