I’ve been asked for a long time which books I recommend for further learning, so I have put together a list of what I have found to be most helpful. Please feel free to shoot me an email if you have other suggestions!

The Complete Enneagram by Beatrice Chestnut - Beatrice Chestnut is hands down my favorite Enneagram teacher. I love her writing style and this book is very easy to understand. In it, she covers all 9 dominant types and all of their subtypes, for a total of 27 types. Bea also just started her own podcast called Enneagram 2.0, and it is very good.

The Nine Types of Leadership by Beatrice Chestnut - This book is really fantastic if you’re in a leadership position, or really if you’re on a team of any kind. It’s broken down into really helpful categories and can bring a lot of transformation to a team that’s looking for an easy way to understand one another’s perspective better.

The Wisdom of the Enneagram by Riso/Hudson - Riso & Hudson are the founders of the Enneagram Institute and this book is nicknamed the “Enneagram Bible” among my friends who teach the Enneagram. It is a deep dive into the Enneagram and a great reference to have on hand.
