98. How Do You Use the Enneagram with Remote Teams? feat. Type 8 Co-Founders Cathy Decker and Stacy Royal
Remote work is a bit of a hot topic in the working world right now.
There's the camp of full-time in the office, different hybrid models, and full-time remote teams.
There are benefits and advantages to each, and of course potential challenges with each.
In today's episode, we're talking with the Principles and Co-Founders of The Decker/Royal Agency (2023 Inc's Best Workplace Winner), Cathy Decker and Stacy Royal, on how they've used the awareness they've gained from the Enneagram to navigate some of the challenges of a fully remote team and to better understand:
- their own leadership styles as Type 8's
- the co-leadership dynamic with each other
- each member of their team more deeply to better communicate and collaborate
- and... their clients.
Do you work on a remote team? How have personality tools like the Enneagram been beneficial? Drop any insights or experiences you have at enneagrammba.com/contact and I'd love to share them on a future episode!
