You hired nine different inner worlds.

One team. Map how yours actually works together — the patterns, the friction, the blind spots — and lead the shape you have instead of fighting it.

Your team doesn't have a communication problem.

It has nine operating systems — sometimes aligning, sometimes colliding.

Every person you lead runs a different inner logic — what they notice first, what they fear most, what they reach for under pressure. Most teams never name it. They just feel the friction and call it dysfunction. This is the map underneath it.

How it works

Your team mapped across all nine types — and the one archetype that names how you actually work together.

The 7 team archetypes

Every team has a shape. Most leaders are managing the wrong one.

The mix of types on your team settles into one of seven recognizable patterns. Your diagnostic names yours — and what it costs you when you lead against it.

The founder's team

The Solar System

One gravitational center, and everything orbits it. Fast when the founder is in the room — and stalled when they're not. The work isn't to dim the sun. It's to give the planets their own light.

The Thoroughbreds

High-performing, polished, always hitting the number — and privately running on fumes, because here "I'm fine" is the only acceptable answer.

The Fire Brigade

Magnificent in a crisis — fast, decisive, all-in. Lost without one, so it keeps manufacturing the next emergency to feel alive.

The Bunker

Loyal, vigilant, bonded in the foxhole. The same walls that protect them keep new people — and new trust — locked out.

The Cloister

The smartest team in the building. So careful, so rigorous, that decisions get studied to death and nothing ever ships.

The Peace Treaty

Calm, agreeable, conflict-free on the surface — while the hard conversations migrate to the hallway. The higher the stakes, the quieter the room.

The Found Family

Warm, loyal, a real home — and so close that accountability feels like betrayal, so the hard truth never gets said.

Each archetype unpacks into a named thesis in your report — the specific tension to watch, and the move that releases it.

I don't fix teams. I help them see the pattern — and the moves that shift it.

Licensed therapist, executive coach, and facilitator for 20+ years. Former tech CEO. I've sat at the head of the table and felt my team grind against itself. The Enneagram is the most precise language I've found for what's actually happening in that room. And it gives you a precision playbook for course-correcting.

This diagnostic is the same map I use with the leaders I coach. We built it ourselves, and we keep validating it with every team that takes it.

“As CEO, it would have been easy to say this was a waste of time and money. Instead, I took a leap — and that half-day Enneagram session was the high of my month.” — Tiffanie Robinson, SVN
