About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

At their BEST, type ONEs are extraordinarily wise, discerning, and principled with a higher purpose. At their WORST they are emotionally constricted, often workaholic, perfectionistic, demanding and opinionated.

This is an event for newcomers to the Enneagram, or for anyone wanting to sharpen their understanding. We will cover the basics of Enneagram Type ONE, the Reformer. Will be presented from a Christian perspective focused on growth.


Summary of ONES

Virtues and strenths - integrity and fairness.

Vices and weaknesses - can be overly critical

Blindspots - their own anger, which they try to hide or minimize

Triggers - the world, organizations, processes, and even people are broken or imperfect. I am compelled to assist in fixing this.

Growth path - Lighten up!

Stress path - Losing control of themselves, especially emotionally.
