This is the beginning of my wide-ranging conversation with Michael Benevento of Fountainhead MFO about the application of the ATA Enneagram model of personality to the financial services industry.
In particular, we talk about the impact of the three instinctual biases, our tendency to habitually and unconsciously focus on one set of needs to the detriment of others.
Mike is a great example of how these ideas can be applied in practical ways to great impact.

If you are using the Enneagram, but don’t fully understand the three instinctual biases, you are only using half the system.
This live, in-person, and interactive workshop will provide a deep dive into this rich topic and is guaranteed to transform your understanding of yourself, those around you, and your work with the Enneagram.
Mario Sikora and Maria Jose Munita, who have a combined 40 years of experience as coaches using the Enneagram, will present their approach to working with the instinctual biases, an approach that is based on working with the Enneagram with individuals and groups of all kinds on five continents over the last 25 years. The Awareness to Action approach to the three instinctual biases—Preserving, Navigating, and Transmitting—expands on and updates the traditional concepts of these biases as three “instincts,” bringing them to life in a new way.
Mario and Maria Jose will present a model and structure that is simple, clear, and actionable. Attending this program will completely change the way you see the Enneagram.
Topics covered in this highly interactive two-day workshop will include:
*What the instinctual biases are (and are not).
*Why we use the terms Preserving, Navigating, and Transmitting instead of Self-Preservation, Social, and Sexual (or one-to-one).
*The interplay of the nine Ennea-type strategies and the instinctual biases.
*The 27 subtypes.
*Using the instinctual biases to improve our relationships at home and at work.
*How to improve behaviors in each domain, and knowing when it is necessary to do so.
*And more…
The price for this program is $295 ($250 early-bird discount through March 10).
Spaces are limited!

Mario Sikora and Maria Jose Munita are internationally known experts in the use of the Enneagram in organizations. They are both former presidents of the International Enneagram Association and co-authors of “Instinctual Leadership” and “The Enneagram Guidebook.”
