This episode is less about e-commerce operations and more about leadership and communication through self-understanding. The discussion with Ian Cron focuses on how the Enneagram personality framework can help leaders understand themselves and their teams better, leading to more effective communication and stronger leadership. While not directly e-commerce focused, the principles of improved leadership can indirectly benefit any business.

The Enneagram is a personality typing system that teaches there are nine basic personality styles in the world. These styles, or "Types," deeply influence how we think and act. But what does that mean for us as leaders? Enneagram teacher Ian Cron is back for part 2 of our Enneagram series for leadership. This time, he shows you how to leverage the strengths of your own Enneagram Type in order to lead your team well. (Not sure of your Type? You may have a better idea of it after you listen to this episode!) http://buildingastorybrand.com/125
