Aephoria Partners

Aephoria Partners Fostering growth through leadership, team & organisational development, coaching, & assessments Emerging markets require new ways of thinking, being, feeling.

What does it mean to be human in today’s organisations operating in a volatile world? We specialise in the emerging market context; we work either with organisations from emerging economies or with businesses trying to access developing markets. Our interventions aim to go beyond 'traditional' cognitive approaches to people development by facilitating behavioural, emotional, somatic and psychologi

cal shifts in people, primarily through the use of the Enneagram and the Leadership Maturity Framework (Cook-Greuter and Torbert’s work). Aephoria has designed and run intensive enneagram courses for companies within the petrochemical, FMCG, mining and banking sectors in emerging markets. These courses range from 2 to 16 days in duration and include individual and team work, the enneagram and strategy, enneagram and diversity and many other applications. We have recently mapped the enneagram with Cook-Greuter’s LMF to provide a specific and rich developmental pathway for ourselves and our partners.

Some great news from the Aephorian camp…

Our Level 1 Enneagram Accreditation is now ICF-accredited and carries 20 CCE credits!

OK, so we know that coaches sometimes choose programmes partly because they need credits to renew their International Coaching Federation credentials. No judgement here, and we’re very happy to help.
But if you’re going to spend the time and money, you may as well learn something genuinely fabulous and useful too. Our Level 1 gives coaches a deep and practical understanding of why people do what they do, what sits underneath their behaviour, where they get stuck and what might help them move.

So, yes, it’s 20 ICF credits…and a serious Enneagram accreditation at the end of it.

Hugely proud of the core team who got this across the line: Lucille Greeff and رزان 🎉

Our next Level 1 still has a few spaces and runs on 6, 7, 13 and 15 October 2026. Sign up now to secure your 20 CCE credits before the end of the year.

Have you outgrown your Maturity report?

Unlike your Enneagram type, your maturity can, and arguably should, change. A lot can happen to us in two or three years.

Maybe you’ve stepped into a more demanding job, done some serious work in coaching / therapy, been through divorce or bereavement, or simply had life ‘grow you up’ in one of its less subtle ways.

If your last Maturity assessment was a few years ago, perhaps it’s time to find out who is driving your bus now.

And for our coaches, have a look back through the clients you’ve assessed over the years. Some may have shifted a lot, while others may still be grappling with exactly the same developmental edge. Either way, a retest could open up a very useful conversation about what has changed and where their work now lies.

If someone has popped into mind while reading this, or you’re curious about your own development, email [email protected] to arrange Maturity assessments or retests.

What an invigorating few days we had at Culture Café Johannesburg!

We had some fabulous conversations with some old faces (and some young ones too) and the buzz around the stand was electric. Not just because we were giving away 9 flavours of Lindt South Africa balls to represent the 9 Enneagram styles!

We sponsored a breakfast roundtable discussion with some esteemed culture gurus. Thank you Dr. Candice Hartley (PhD) Kelly Ledger, Andrew Millson, Shantal Kamraj, Fiona Johnson, Sibahle Somana, Andrew McDonald and we opportunistically did some further market-testing of our evangelical commitment to the Professional Pairs assessment and coaching technologies. We now know for sure that we’re onto something with this…

Thank you, Dalebrook Media, for having us. And thank you to everyone who stopped by and made the experience so rewarding.

Yesterday, our team proudly took part in the PSFA Blisters for Bread Walk, with team members completing both the 5 km and 10 km routes.

A big congratulations to everyone who showed up, put one foot in front of the other, and supported a cause that helps provide food, support and hope to those facing hunger.

We’re proud of our team for coming together to walk for something bigger than ourselves and to celebrate community, connection and purpose in action.

Join us for our next Community of Practice as Samantha Taroni and Cherise Nortje explore the powerful relationship between the Enneagram and the Twelve Steps.

Together we'll investigate how the Enneagram can support honest self-inquiry, how our wings can become allies in moving beyond familiar patterns, and how recovery principles can deepen both our personal practice and our coaching.

This experiential session offers space for reflection, meaningful conversation, and practical insights that you can apply in your own life and work.

What if the real challenge isn't the people, but the system they are a part of?

In this clip from our recent Community of Practice, Paul Zonneveld explores how hidden patterns shape trust, collaboration, decision-making and performance and why small shifts in the system can create lasting change.

Most organisations invest heavily in team culture and miss the partnership sitting right at the centre of their performance.
The Professional Pairs report gives two colleagues a detailed picture of how they work together, where friction is likely to build, and what they can do differently to operate as a stronger unit.

It is one of the most targeted interventions available for workplace performance, and it starts with a single report.

You no longer have to wonder why working together feels harder than it should.

Our Professional Pairs report brings clarity on what's really happening between two colleagues, so they can spend less time navigating friction and more time moving forward.

Our newly sharpened Professional Pairs Report is live.

Drop your questions in the comments. Simon and Lucille will be answering from their own experience, as the first pair to ever run this report.
