    Self Awareness Development

"Leadership's first commandment - Know Thyself !"

Harvard Business Review, Dec. 2001

Current research is proving that:

your Career Advancement is directly proportional to your Leadership Ability

which in turn is directly proportional to your level of Emotional Intelligence

of which Self Awareness is perhaps the most important ingredient.

Instead of operating out of habit from comforting convictions, you can, with clear intent, invoke your true reservoir of talents and skills to improve your current levels of performance, and so improve your prospects for career advancement.

A report published in Personnel Today (June 2002) quotes a leading Business School researcher who suggests that

"we are in danger of creating a cadre of future senior managers who know a lot about finance, accounting, marketing and strategy, but know next to nothing about how to get the best out of our people"

If your MBA program didn't help you develop your own levels of self-awareness then here's your chance.


How developing Self Awareness can benefit you?

"Self Awareness offers a sure rudder for keeping our career decisions in harmony with our deepest values......the less aware we are of what makes us passionate, the more lost we will be..."

Daniel Goleman, Working with Emotional Intelligence

See our article on 21st Century Leadership, Emotional Intelligence and Self Awareness.

By developing your level of self-awareness you will be able to:

  • Get what you really want out of your career

  • Get more out of the people you work with - clients, boss, peers, suppliers, staff

  • Communicate more effectively - by tailoring your message to the deeply held concerns of your listener

  • Make better decisions - from a place of greater objectivity

  • Reduce your level of stress - through improved truer relationships

  • Increase your level of self-confidence - through greater self-acceptance

  • Increase your prospects for career advancement - by improving your leadership skills

 …..and plenty more, thereby improving your own performance.

Who is it for?

  • Those who know they are capable of getting more out of life

  • Those who believe that self-improvement is not only possible, but absolutely crucial in this ‘age of unreason’

  • Those who desire to know and be known better, understand and be understood better

  • Those who are committed to improving their lives and careers


So what can I do?

In association with ExecutiveAwareness.com (a sister company to MBAmatch) we are pleased to be able to offer you several ways to improve your level of self-awareness using an ancient personality profiling tool called the Enneagram.

Personality Profiling Tools

Simple Profile - FREE

For those who are keen to find out what their personality type might be but are not sure of its usefulness yet, our simple profiling tool will give you some indication.

Advanced Profile - £14.75

If you are intent on developing your self-awareness and so improving your own levels of performance, this questionnaire will give you a good steer on which types you might fall in to. You can then test this out with colleagues and friends or read more about your profile before attending a 2 day workshop.

Having completed one or preferably both of these profiles why not purchase one of the many good books to explain the system and personality types in more detail?

  Workshops 

The best way of actually uncovering your own personality type is by listening and learning from others. Our workshops have been designed to be highly interactive.

Unleashing Your Potential - 2 days - £345

For those at the start of their journey this two-day workshop will introduce you to:

  • Self-Awareness within the context of Emotional Intelligence and Leadership

  • the nine personality types of the Enneagram, helping you discover the positive and negative attributes of your own type

  • some tools to put this new awareness into practice in your everyday business life

  • an introduction to contemplation and its uses

Transforming Your Performance - 2 days - £345

This advanced workshop is currently in development.


  Personal Coaching Services

Consultations can be carried out either over the phone or face to face depending on your location.

Discovering your Enneagram Personality type  - £75

Perhaps the most effective method of uncovering your own type is to run through a Q&A session with a trained Enneagram counsellor. 

Whilst this is not a substitute for understanding the basics of the Enneagram, our consultations are designed for those who have read up on the Enneagram and have a good idea who they are OR may have already attended one of our workshops but are still not totally sure.
