By: Nic Abelian – Los Angeles, CA – In today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world, executives, entrepreneurs, and high achievers often face personal and professional crises that seem insurmountable.
Whether it’s burnout, divorce, navigating a career transition, or problems with the kids, modern life seems to have an endless supply of different forms of crises, of challenges—especially for those who live life on the fast lane.
Such crises, heightened by the ever-increasing demands of success, can take a heavy psychological, emotional, and mental toll, and at times even destroy people’s lives in the pursuit of success.
But what if instead of letting such crises destroy your life, these very crises could be used as a catalyst for growth and long-term achievement instead?
This is the essence of the High Achievers’ Crisis Transformation System™—a method that doesn’t merely help individuals overcome crises, but transforms them to a healthier, more sustainable success.
A key element of this system involves harnessing the profound wisdom of the Enneagram, a tool that has transformed lives worldwide for many decades.
How the Enneagram Can Be Used to Enhance Crisis Transformation
The Enneagram is often used for self-awareness and personal growth, helping individuals gain insight into their core beliefs, motivations, fears, and desires.
By recognizing their Enneagram type, high achievers can gain an invaluable understanding of the root causes of their emotional and behavioural reactions to life’s events and even crises, thereby navigating them with greater ease and success.
This personality type-based approach is particularly powerful for high achievers facing pressure-filled environments, such as executives and entrepreneurs.
Done right, it equips them with a roadmap of their strengths, weaknesses, what to be especially aware of, and how to deal with challenges and crises.
For example, the Enneagram provides critical insights for each type’s different keys for response to personal and professional challenges, emotional regulation, self-awareness, and a path for growth – four vital components for navigating crises effectively.
By identifying their Enneagram type’s response to various challenges, individuals can proactively manage fear, make better decisions, and build emotional resilience—critical tools for overcoming adversity.
Moreover, the system provides a comprehensive, tailored approach – as opposed to a “one size fits all” approach, as each type has a very different path for growth. Moreover, sometimes that path is exactly the opposite of another type’s path.
The Most Accurate Treasure Map – But the Treasure is You
“Great advice or practice for Enneagram type 1 can be an absolute disaster for Enneagram type 7, for example, so it’s absolutely critical not to treat everyone that comes for help the same way. Even the way you talk to each type must be different if you want to help them.
It’s more work for me as I need to tailor everything to each client’s patterns, but it’s worth it because it’s a huge part of why my clients are seeing such incredible results, and seeing them so fast”, says Eldad Ben-Moshe, founder of the Better Life Awareness Center, where he also coaches and teaches.
Eldad, who has been coaching since 2009, helps executives and entrepreneurs transform personal and professional crises into a healthy, sustainable success.
He is also the founder of the E-School™ Enneagram school and the creator of numerous Enneagram courses and of The Enneagram Blueprint Show™ – a free show with many profound Enneagram insights.
“The Enneagam is so critical and so helpful that it’s the very first step of the 9 steps of The High Achiever’s Crises Transformation System™.
It is a total game-changer. It gives me insights into my clients’ deepest beliefs, fears, and needs, and into their emotional, behavioural, and thought patterns. It helps me know all of that and more before we even meet.
It’s like having the most accurate treasure map – but the treasure is you.
The map tells me how you are built, how you are wired.
But it’s not about the knowledge. It’s about having powerful insights that help my clients see life-changing transformations in a much shorter time.
Knowing how to approach each client according to their personal blueprint helps me and them – as a team – know what’s the best way for them, specifically as they are, to confront their personal and professional crises head-on, and emerge stronger.
Whether they are battling personal or professional challenges, clients are able to use the Enneagram to recognize the core causes of their suffering, their innermost thought, emotions, and behavioural patterns, shift their mindset and patterns, and tap into their inner strength.
It’s quite sensational to see that transformation in a person, really. I’m a very lucky guy to be able to be a part of that, to have front row seats to such a powerful, exquisite transformation.”
More Than Just Your Main Type: Your Entire “Ennegram Blueprint™”
The Enneagram is a journey of self-discovery that helps you change your life. Properly used or with the right knowledge or the right help, you can use the Enneagram not just to understand yourself and others, but also to make extremely beneficial changes in your life.
It helps you know yourself better, your automatic defense mechanism, the personality patterns you operate from – and why.
It helps you relate to others better and build better relationships, fulfill your full potential, and avoid your habitual traps.
“As the Enneagram grew in popularity, many misunderstandings and ‘flat’, quick-byte information about it popped up, as is often the case with things that become popular.
Many people miss the point that the Enneagram is a dynamic system, it’s not just the main nine types”, says Eldad.
“There are arrows, wings, centers, instincts, levels of development, tritypes, and on and on and on it goes. More than that, no one is one thing all the time.
So the Enneagram is actually a dynamic, complex modality. That’s why I called it “The Enneagram Blueprint”. It’s much more than just your main type. It’s a dynamic, complex blueprint. That’s a big part of why it’s working so well, too.
Human beings are complex, and any model that oversimplifies us won’t capture our true nature or help us make meaningful change. While your core Enneagram type remains constant, it’s just the beginning, like the tip of an iceberg.
And you can put a thousand people of any type, let’s say Enneagram type five, for example, in a room, and you’ll have a thousand different people because we are different in many ways.
Because I’m an individual, you’re an individual, but also because, you know, one five will have an Enneagram type four wing and one will have an Enneagram type six wing, and they’ll have different levels of development, different instincts, and different tritypes.
What I’m saying is that there are not nine boxes of how everybody is and that’s it. That’s not what we’re talking about.
That would never have been a good enough modality to help transform lives, because it would be missing too much of how we really are.
It would never have been anywhere close to being as accurate as the full scope that the Enneagram gives us.”
Therapists and Coaches Acknowledge the Power of the Enneagram in Transforming Crisis
The High Achievers’ Crisis Transformation System™ addresses the growing need for a profound approach to overcoming crises.
High achievers face challenges that require more than just a temporary fix—they need a transformative process that not only resolves the crisis but also addresses their unconscious core responses to adversity – because life will bring more and more challenges.
Discovering your full Enneagram Blueprint™ and how to work with it properly is the ideal first step toward transformation. An ever-growing number of therapists, social workers, and coaches are incorporating the Enneagram into their practice to better support clients through crises.
“As an approved provider of CEUs (Continued Education Units) for therapists, I can see the growing demand for my Enneagram Blueprint for Professionals™ course series,” says Eldad.
“It’s exciting to see more professionals using the Enneagram to help their clients navigate crises.
That’s excellent news for both the therapists and the clients. And I applaud the governing entities such as the Board of Behavioral Sciences for acknowledging that by approving my Enneagram courses as continuing education material for therapists,” Eldad says.
