    Leadership Talent For Decision Making

    In the second half of 2023, leading global executive search firm, Kingsley Gate, conducted in-depth conversations with over 35 senior executives and board members across 11 Latin American markets with FT Longitude of the Financial Times Group. The findings highlight that most senior executive participants not only believe that decision making is both a critical component of any leader’s mandate, but also that decision making does tend to look slightly different in a Latin American context. In this conversation with Aaron Mitchell Finegold, the Chief Marketing Officer of Kingsley Gate, we’re going to discuss key findings from this survey which builds upon their original global research also launched last year with the FT.

    Exploring the Enneagram with Karl Hebenstreit

    In this episode, we explore the Enneagram with Karl Hebenstreit, author of "The How & Why: Taking Care of Business with the Enneagram". The Enneagram is a personality model that describes people in terms of nine personality types, each with its own core motivations, fears and internal dynamics. The name derives from Greek (ennéa, meaning "nine" and grámma, meaning something "written" or "drawn"). The nine types are represented diagrammatically by the points of a geometric figure called an enneagram. In a business context, the Enneagram is used to gain insights into workplace interpersonal dynamics. The ability to take on another person’s point of view is a vital part of getting anything done successfully, and the enneagram offers an effective route to open people up to other ways of thinking. Karl Hebenstreit is a certified executive coach, leadership and organisational development (OD) consultant, author, and international speaker. He has more than 25 years of HR and OD experience across arrange of industries. As well as "Taking Care of Business with the Enneagram" (now in its third edition), Nina and the Really, Really Tough Decision.
