"The single most powerful tool I've encountered to gain emotional intelligence is the Enneagram. It's given me a level of self-awareness that almost feels like magical insight. If you want to better yourself, read Scott's book. Beware, though--before he wrote it he may have read your diary."--Donald Miller, author, speaker, and CEO of StoryBrand and Business Made Simple

"Scott Allender has provided a practical, accessible, and yet profound guide to living a better life through self-understanding grounded in a clearly articulated and effective integration of EQ and the Enneagram and in his own personal experience of transformation."--Beatrice Chestnut, PhD, author of The Complete Enneagram and The 9 Types of Leadership and coauthor of The Enneagram Guide to Waking Up
