Beyond Your Box
But, your experience may have revealed that this change is rarely sustained and sustainable. The initial “aha moment” often gives way to old patterns of behaviour, conflict, disengagement, and ineffectiveness that re-emerge in different forms.
This is because descriptive models of personality describe our personality boxes well, but fail to show coaches and their clients how to get out of them when they become confining. Descriptive models also don’t really tell us why and how we get ourselves boxed in unhelpful habits in the first place. These personality assessments confirm a lot for us, but leave us relatively unchanged.
To put it another way, we learn very little from descriptive models about the unconscious motivations that really shape our personalities.
Beyond our personality boxes – Motivational models of personality
Have you ever wondered how and why your clients or employees develop their preferences and patterns of thinking, feeling and response? And maybe more significantly, why do we all get stuck in negative and self-defeating cycles of interaction that serve neither us nor our co-workers? To answer these questions we need a motivational model of personality style like the Enneagram that tells us not only the “what” of our personalities, but also the “why” and the “how”.
With the E-Scale technology (based on the Enneagram system) you can finally help your clients or employees discover why they have developed their preferred behavioural and thinking patterns. Through the E-Scale profiling process you can bring into consciousness awareness the needs, fears and avoidances that drive your clients or employees into a self-defeating autopilot mode. This awareness allows you as a coach or mentor to guide them towards conscious and alternative choices that shift them out of their habitual ways of functioning.
In effect, the E-Scale process moves your clients beyond their limiting boxes rather than merely helping them describe their boxes’ good or bad contours.
Beyond The Developer Box
The truth is that people developers can also get stuck in limiting boxes. Many of us can feel stuck when our usual ways of working, as well as our own limiting personality patterns, don’t allow us to break through to new levels of effectiveness. You too may be a coach, a mentor or a manager who is looking for something more – something to expand your own performance and effectiveness. You may be tired of tools, approaches and systems that haven’t lead to sustainable changes.
Well this is your opportunity to find out what really motivates you and what gets you stuck. This is also the first step towards taking your coaching and mentoring relationships to that next level.
