Yechezkel Madanes - From Stuckness to Growth: Enneagram Coaching (Enneagram, MBTI & Anthony Robbins-Cloe Madanes HNP): How to read your coachees and transform their lives

Praise for From Stuckness to Growth

The beauty of this new Enneagram and Coaching book is how the authors have created a non-pathologizing methodology that recognizes both our humanness and our spiritual core. They continuously draw on the wisdom of all three Centers in their process for helping clients become unstuck. They also clearly emphasize the more life-embracing sides of type, and include type-specific guided meditations and practices that are grounded in presence and self-awareness. We highly admire the spirit and depth of their approach to coaching with the Enneagram.

Coaches can never have too many tools in their kit and From Stuckness to Growth is a grounded, practical, yet robust addition. Study it for a deeper understanding of how personality types affect our pursuit of core needs, resulting in different detours or even dead ends in the journey toward meaning and purpose. Use it to ponder the patterns in how you might misinterpret clients because of type differences and then tailor your coaching moves in ways that will resonate with each individual. Keep it nearby as a handy reference for insights into changing your style to meet their needs.

From Stuckness to Growth is an exceptionally well written book that makes it easy for coaches to learn helpful ways of using the Enneagram as a tool for change with their clients.

From Stuckness to Growth by Yechezkel and Ruth Madanes is quite possibly the best coaching book I have read. Their seven reasons why the Enneagram works as a coaching tool helps to frame the way a coaching session might evolve. The Madanes have outlined coaching strategies for each type in a rich, deep and meaningful way. Finally, I thoroughly agree with the coaching protocols that they suggest for each type. I consider this book a must read for anyone doing coaching, therapy or spiritual direction.

This book fills a niche in both Enneagram and coaching literature. It provides thorough background information on Human Needs Psychology, explains exactly how our mindsets develop a rigid worldview and how we can become unstuck . Part Three offers practical and immediately accessible advice for coaches using the Enneagram in their practice. Authors, husband and wife team, Yechezkel and Ruth Madanes, have spent many years perfecting this methodology. Their book is a practical guide that will be invaluable to all coaches, and anyone interested in helping others understand themselves.

"In From Stuckness to Growth , authors Yechezkel and Ruth Madanes offer an excellent resource for anyone utilizing the Enneagram to support change and personal growth. This well written and organized book explores how type may be influenced by Jungian preferences and Coveys principles as well as the authors original framework for recognizing motivational patterns. Best of all the authors scrupulously avoid the limits of pathology and overgeneralization."
