New from Helen Palmer, a "leading teacher and practitioner of the Enneagram" (San Francisco Chronicle), the first Enneagram book to give practical advice, in fascinating detail, on how to have the best possible relationships in love and business.
It would be impossible for most of us to spend a day without coming into direct or indirect contact with dozens of people family, friends, people in the street, at the office, on television, in our fantasies and fears. Our relationships with others are the most changeable, infuriating, pleasurable and mystifying elements in our lives. Personality types, based on the ancient system of the Enneagram, will help you to enjoy more satisfying and fulfilling relationships in all areas of your life by introducing you to the nine basic personality types inherent in human nature. This knowledge will help you better understand how others think and why they behave as they do, as well as increasing your awareness of your own individual personality. Written by the leading world authority on the Enneagram, it offers a framework for understanding ourselves and those around us, as well as a wealth of practical insights for anyone interested in psychology, counselling, teaching, social work, journalism and personal management.
Entendendo os seus relacionamentos íntimos e profissionais
O Eneagrama no Amor e no Trabalho descreve nove diferentes maneiras de relacionar-se no plano íntimo e no plano profissional. Cada um desses pontos de vista é definido por determinadas preocupações mentais e emocionais. Os nove tipos coincidem satisfatoriamente com uma larga faixa do pensamento psicológico atual, mas descrevem, antes, pessoas normais e que tiveram êxito na vida, em vez de tendências patológicas. Cada um de nós pode estar dizendo a verdade, mas cada um de nós tem uma história diferente para contar. Cada um de nós olha o próprio casamento, o emprego e os filhos a partir de ângulos radicalmente diferentes, muitas vezes sem perceber nisso um preconceito sistemático. Extraordinariamente preciso, o Eneagrama faculta-nos olhar profundamente para dentro do nosso próprio caráter e esclarecer os nossos relacionamentos com clientes, colegas de trabalho, familiares e amigos. A autora deste livro também desenvolve teorias sobre o uso do Eneagrama para o entendimento da personalidade humana e da relação desta com aspectos da consciência superior.
