To print a copy of an Free Enneagram ebook
The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above. The Enneagram types (Temperaments) are not made up of lists of character traits, but are founded in a person's core values. Each Temperament represents what that person considers something very important to their life such as power, security, harmony, knowledge, fulfillment, i.e.
Your Temperament enables you to make a valuable contributions to your life; but it also causes you to neglect other values, creating a psychological ‘blind spot” for you.
This is why, if you:
“KEEP DOING WHAT YOU BEEN DOING, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO GET WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GETTING.”

The Orange Trangle in the above image points to the RESPONDIVE TEMPERAMENTS which move toward thinking. They are:
Temperament 1 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward right thinking. Correct behavior is a result of knowing what is right and what is wrong. This knowing is obvious to the member, yet not obvious to others. From the member's perspective it's not the member who is determining what is right, it's simply an absolute unquestioned obvious about what is right. Doing is preferred to thinking. We call members of this Temperament - Reformer – Perfectionists. Temperament One examples are: Hillary Clinton, Tom Brokaw, Martha Stewart, Al Gore, and Tony Randall. These people want to be good. They have high ideals and value and are attracted to situations where those ideals are met. They want to realize all their potential and help others actualize theirs. They envision making the world a better place to live.
Temperament 2 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward the thinking of others. Anticipating the needs of others can arise from knowing what others are thinking. There's a habit of assuming the image or emotions that will please others. To this member, this doesn't seem like manipulation, it's simply finding the right approach to make that emotional connection that seems so vital. Feeling is preferred to thinking. We call members of this Temperament - Giver – Helpers. Temperament Two examples are: Bill Cosby, Alan Alda, Nancy Reagan, Dolly Parton, and Pat Boone. These people want to know they are loving. They want to nurture others and foster relationships. They value and are attracted to love. They envision making the world a more loving place to live.
Temperament 6 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward the thinking of an authority. This member questions their own thinking and the thinking of others. The quest is for a trusting source of reason and rules. If the member can find a reliable and trusted source of thinking then the questioning, doubt, and resulting anxiety may fade. Trusting is preferred to thinking (to say it another way, the preference is to trust the thinking of an authority, but the difficulty lies in finding a trustworthy authority). We call members of this Temperament - Loyal – Skeptics.
Temperament Six examples are: Helen Palmer, Michael Moore, Tom Hanks, Rush Limbaugh, Richard Nixon, and Mel Gibson. These people want to make the world a safer, more secure, more reliable, more trustworthy place to live and they will question anyone’s authority in their effort to do so. They value loyalty in themselves and others and stand by their commitments.

Twos, will: Do that for you * Indices Of Effective Leadership
Influence, The Indices of Effective Leadership. Stanley Ohenhen
Leadership, even on the face value suggests followership. For there to be leadership, there must be evident followership. As rightly posited by John C. Maxwell, "if a man thinks he leads, and looks back to find that no one is following him, he isn't leading but merely taking a walk" This is very true of leadership that must be said to be effective.
Followership. However, for willing, cheerful followership to be elicited from others there must be some things a leader must do right and this is what one generally crystallises as INFLUENCE.

leadership truths In attempting to become an effective leader, one must understand basically, that leadership is not about one's self, but about the impact we make or are able to make on others. To the extent to which we are able to affect others' positions, mindsets, paradigms, perceptions, and get them to display the right attitude, the right responses, the right dispositions, and eventually are able to get them to WILLINGLY and CHEERFULLY follow in one's right steps, genuinely and rightly, making one their model of examples, one is becoming an effective leader.
leadership influence Leadership does not necessarily have to arise from the top to be regarded as leadership. Leadership can effectively be from below and also from the middle. At every level of the hierarchy within the organisation, family, community and any other groups, one could actually demonstrate leadership. And of course, this is the ability to exude sufficient influence to get people (whether above, or beneath) to take steps in favour of one's requests, instructions or petitions, and willingly doing so because one is involved. In fact most times, true leaders with the right level of influence on others, should get followership results without necessarily saying (or as in most cases, shouting) a word, or without even been physically present.

AT WORK: Advice-givers Beware: There's More Than One Road To Achieving A Goal
Weekly At Work column by Andrea Kay

leadership effectiveness
In other words leadership can also be described as the ability to make statements without saying a word. This is leadership influence. Influence is derivable from what we do with or for others and not really what we do with or for ourselves. So if we must lead people, they must be seen to be following us either literally or metaphorically. And for them to follow us, we must influence them enough to get their physical and psychological attention.

Why do we use numbers?
Names such as: Twos, Giver, Caretaker, Helper, Nurturer, or Advisor, are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.
We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.
The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.
No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society.
You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”
People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.
The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.
