New in the Made Easy series: a comprehensive and accessible guide to the Enneagram personality-typing system by certified Enneagram teacher, Dr. Deborah Egerton. The Enneagram is an archetypal personality system that identifies nine distinct types, each with its own set of characteristics, motivations, and patterns of behavior. In this book, Dr. Deborah Threadgill Egerton, certified Enneagram teacher and a board member of the International Enneagram Association will help the reader to explore all facets of the Enneagram at a "bird's-eye view" and then provide a deeper dive into each of the nine personality archetypes, which are: 1. The Reformer: The perfectionist, rational, principled, and self-controlled type, who strives to improve themselves and the world around them. 2. The Helper: The caring, generous, and empathetic type, who seeks to support and care for others, often at the expense of their own needs.

3. The Achiever: The ambitious, adaptable, and competitive type, who seeks success and recognition and tends to define themselves by their achievements. 4. The Individualist: The introspective, artistic, and emotionally expressive type, who seeks to understand their own identity and emotions and to create a unique sense of self. 5. The Investigator: The observant, analytical, and curious type, who seeks knowledge and understanding and tends to withdraw from others to conserve energy. 6. The Loyalist: The trustworthy, responsible, and cautious type, who seeks security and stability and tends to rely on authority figures for guidance.

7. The Enthusiast: The adventurous, optimistic, and spontaneous type, who seeks new experiences and stimulation and tends to avoid pain and boredom. 8. The Challenger: The confident, assertive, and powerful type, who seeks control and influence and tends to confront others directly. 9. The Peacemaker: The peaceful, easy-going, and agreeable type, who seeks harmony and unity and tends to avoid conflict and tension.
