Use the Ancient Philosophy of the Enneagram to Transform Your Experience of Education Leadership

Higher education leaders play a critical role in the attitude, reputation, and climate of their departments, schools, and colleges. But the day-to-day stresses of leadership can take a toll on even the most resilient people, wearing down their ability to respond to challenges large and small.

In Leadership by the Number: Using the Enneagram to Strengthen Educational Leadership, accomplished researcher, academic, and leadership coach Dr. Jon E. Singletary delivers an intuitive and effective handbook for education leaders who want to go from surviving their leadership role to thriving in it. Using the ancient philosophy of the Enneagram of Personality, the author demonstrates how one's sense of self manifests in our own self-awareness and efficacy as leaders.

The author shows you how to maximize your impact as a leader by harnessing the self-understanding, growth, and transformative power of Enneagram philosophy. You’ll learn to juggle the myriad demands of your role with greater skill, patience, and fulfillment as you change how you think, feel, and act every day.

"With cogency and vulnerability, Jon Singletary invites leaders toward the brave toil of understanding leadership as soulful work. His decade-long engagement with the Enneagram will inspire you to probe your self-awareness, generate collegial compassion, and elevate the effectiveness of your team."
―M. BLYTHE TAYLOR, Assistant Provost for Integrative Learning, Barton College, North Carolina
