Who Am I

Who Am I: Enneagram Leadership Program

A 3-hour program run with Enneagram, designed to take you off “autopilot” and help you build high-functioning and collaborative teams.

The Who Am I Program introduces participants to the Enneagram, a powerful framework that reveals the deeper motivations, fears, and patterns that shape behaviour and leadership style.

Through guided reflection and practical insights, participants identify their dominant personality type and explore how it influences their communication, decision-making, and responses under pressure.

The goal is not to label personalities, but to build self-awareness and conscious leadership.

We often focus on what we do in our roles - our decisions, actions, and outcomes. Far less attention is given to why we think, react, and lead the way we do.

By understanding both their own patterns and those of others, participants gain tools to improve collaboration, navigate differences, and lead with greater clarity and empathy.

Reviews

The Enneagram session I had with Padmajaa was really fascinating. It helped me understand not only my strengths and weaknesses but also clarity on where I was getting stuck in life because of certain patterns that I had adopted and habits that I had.

I took the Enneagram session with Padmajaa and I didn’t know what to expect out of it earlier but the results were very fitting. The first thing the Enneagram did was help me understand my personality and why I react to situations in a certain way. Vrinda Murthy

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the program take? The workshop is designed as a 3-hour interactive experience combining learning, reflection, and group discussion.
Who is this program suitable for? The program is ideal for mid-level professionals, team leaders, managers, founders, and anyone interested in understanding themselves and their teams more deeply.
Is this program suitable for large teams? Yes. The ideal group size is 20–30 participants, though the session can be conducted for groups of up to 50 people.
How is the Enneagram different from MBTI or DISC? MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) focuses on cognitive preferences, how people perceive information and make decisions. DISC focuses on observable behaviour, particularly in workplace environments. The Enneagram focuses on motivation. It explores the underlying fears, desires, and emotional drivers that shape behaviour. Rather than simply describing personality, the Enneagram reveals why people behave the way they do, making it a powerful framework for leadership development and personal growth.
Do I need prior knowledge of the Enneagram?
No prior knowledge is required. The program is designed for both beginners and those already familiar with personality frameworks.
