Enneagram

Presented in English with Spanish Translation

Join us for this special IEA LIVE Event on How to Build a Creative Team Implementing Enneagram Wisdom - Presented by Catherine Bell

In this session, Catherine R. Bell draws on over twenty years of building Enneagram-based organizations, first as Founder of BluEra, then as CEO of The Awakened Company, to show what it actually takes to turn Enneagram fluency into an organizational system, not just a personal insight. She’s worked hands-on with thousands of leaders and organizations, in over 23 countries, from Fortune 500 companies to small teams and solo founders, and interviewed dozens of leaders for both her books. In The Awakened Company, Catherine makes the connection to what makes an organization feel alive rather than merely functional. In her forthcoming book with Russ Hudson The Creative Moment, Catherine walks us through how creative organizational leaders actually build and sustain that creativity. Most coaches and consultants know the Enneagram deeply as a tool for individual growth; this is about building the collective around it: a company, a team. Catherine will walk through the architecture she’s using awakening the self, then relationships, then teams, each stage mapped to one of the Enneagram’s three instincts (self-preservation, magnetic, and social) so creativity and culture compound instead of staying trapped in any one person’s growth.

Participants will leave with a concrete model they can apply immediately, whether they’re building their own Enneagram-centred practice or helping a client organization do the same: how to sequence the work so it actually sticks, where most culture initiatives quietly stall out, and the specific practices, drawn from real experiences and interviews, that turn individual self-awareness into a team capable of genuine creative work together.

Catherine R. Bell, MBA is a serial entrepreneur and certified Enneagram teacher who has spent two decades turning the Enneagram into organizational practice. Founder of BluEra (sold to DHR) and CEO and Author of The Awakened Company, her bestselling book mapped the Enneagram’s three instincts onto self, relationships, and team culture. She’s recorded two Enneagram audio programs with Russ Hudson, and her next book, The Creative Moment, arrives from Penguin Random House/Hay House in 2027.
