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.

In this month’s article, Christo van Staden continues the exploration of workplace pairs, this time with a focus on trust. Trust is what makes the relationship hang together and move easily. It is developed over time, it can be broken in a moment, and repairing and growing trust is an ongoing relationship priority.

How does the Enneagram help us to navigate the processes of trust? The three centres of the Enneagram point us in the direction of three trust intelligences that need to work together. Of these three, the instinctual intelligence is the least explored in organisational trust literature. We trust, or don’t trust, long before we give thought to it. The instincts tell us whether we are safe, and if what needs protection, is well protected.

In couples' work, the relationship itself becomes part of the coaching field. Two people arrive with their own histories, type structures, instincts, needs and defences. Between them, something else takes shape: the shared pattern of “us”.

Aephoria Level 5 trains coaches to work with that field more precisely.

Most practitioners are trained to read people. Far fewer are trained to read the relationship between them.
That is the focus of Aephoria Level 5: Enneagram for Couples.

Couples may come with money, parenting, s*x, silence, dishes, or the same fight in another form. The topic matters, but the deeper work is the loop between them: one moves closer, the other pulls away; one reacts, the other shuts down.

Aephoria Level 5, https://aephoriagroup.com/product/level-5-couples-september/, gives therapists, coaches and Enneagram practitioners a practical way to work with the relationship itself, using the Enneagram and the Aephoria Couples Report.

With type, instinct, trifix and 266,000 unique report permutations, practitioners get a clearer map of the Third Entity: the relational field between two people.

The result is more precise language for what is happening in the room, without getting trapped in “he said, she said.

One client. Two people. Third entity.

Couples coaching asks something different of the practitioner. You are listening to two individual stories, and to the relationship itself: the pattern that forms between two people, the places where they miss each other, the repairs they reach for, and the loops they repeat. Aephoria Level 5: Couples Coaching Certification gives coaches a structured way to work with that relational field through the Enneagram. Facilitated by .alchemist Aephoria Faculty.

Most leadership pairs don’t realise they’re out of sync until it shows up like this:
– You’re having the same conversation, just in different ways
– Decisions feel heavier than they should
– One of you is pushing pace, the other is pulling back
– You leave meetings aligned, but act differently afterwards

It doesn’t feel like conflict.
It just feels harder than it should be.

This is what we mean by patterns.
Not personality in isolation, but the dynamic between two people and how it shapes how work actually gets done.

Join Dr Simon Kettleborough and Ankia Coetzer, MBA as they explore this in our upcoming Community of Practice.
