Key Learning Points from this conversation with Joni Peddie:

How well do you understand the people you work with—and your own communication habits? Joni Peddie joins George Torok to explore the Enneagram as a framework for self awareness, clearer communication and stronger teamwork.

• Recognize your communication patterns. Notice the fears, motivations and habits that influence how you communicate.


• Understand personality differences. Explore the nine Enneagram styles and how people approach work and relationships differently.


• Use personality insights without boxing people in. Treat the model as a starting point for self discovery and conversation.


• Notice when strengths become liabilities. Recognize when drive, loyalty or decisiveness starts to work against you.


• Respond deliberately under stress. Catch automatic reactions and choose a response that fits the situation.


• Develop a wider range of behaviours. Practise approaches beyond your usual habits as your responsibilities change.


• Influence others while remaining authentic. Adapt the information, timing and choices you offer to the other person’s needs.


• Build compassion and accountability in teams. Understand different reactions while keeping meetings constructive.


• Personalize resilience strategies. Choose practices that people can realistically integrate into their lives.


• Ask more and tell less. Discuss communication preferences, team boundaries and the conditions that help people do their best work.
