168: How Understanding Our Core Motivations Helps Us Develop as Leaders with Enneagram Expert, Sandhya Sudhakar

I am such a Type 4. You’re definitely a Type 2. My inner-Type 3 is coming out to play . Maybe you know your Enneagram type or perhaps this is all new to you. No matter which boat you’re in, Erin and Enneagram expert Sandhya Sudhakar discuss how she first became interested in Enneagram, why taking a sabbatical was the best decision she could’ve made, and how Enneagram helps us to understand how our core motivations can help us develop as leaders. Sandhya Sudhakar created a company called Self at Work where she takes a trauma-informed, inclusive approach to leadership, development, and wellbeing in the professional sphere. Sandhya’s main goal is to help leaders build meaningful connections with themselves, their teams, and their work so they can achieve breakthrough business results without burning out their employees or themselves. If you are a leader who wants to understand yourself so that you can understand your teams on a deeper, meaningful, tangible level, then this three-part series is for you.
