Saturday, April 4, 2020
9:30am-5:15pm EDT

Featuring Panelists:
Beatrice Chestnut, Russ Hudson, Peter O’Hanrahan and Mario Sikora

Facilitated by Leslie Hershberger & Curt Micka

What are the Instincts & Subtypes in the world of the Enneagram?
Are Instincts and Subtypes the same thing or different?
Why am I so confused about my dominant Instinct/Subtype?
Are my behaviors reflective of my dominant Type or my dominant Instinct/Subtype?
How do I distinguish between the two? Is it important to do so?
How do our Instincts/Subtypes impact our personal and professional relationships?
These are but a few of the questions we’ll be exploring in Cincinnati, Ohio on April 3-4, 2020.

Through their own study, teaching and facilitation, each of these teachers has emerged as a leader in the field of Instincts/Subtypes.

This exploration is less about determining a definitive right or wrong view on the Instinctual Subtypes but instead an understanding of distinctions with the different views and an emphases on personal growth in self-awareness, interpersonal awareness and awareness of how these instincts drive our collective evolution.
Our Moderators, Leslie Hershberger and Curt Micka, will lead the interviews with the panelists. Attendees will also participate in reflection exercises and small group breakouts.
Come with your questions and let’s discuss! You won’t want to miss this special event. Register now!
