Part 1 of a 2 part series with business consultant, coach, trainer (just don't call her 'guru'), Ginger Lapid-Bogda ((SO2) - an Enneagram teacher who will always hold a special place in my heart. In Part 1, we mostly discuss what's so great about using metaphor to teach.

In Part 2 (released on 16/3) she offers some 'watch-fors' for each Enneagram type when they teach, and priceless advice for those of us called to teach the Enneagram.

• 3 different learning styles:
• Auditory learners take in information through listening and speaking.
• Visual learners best absorb information when they see the material being presented.
• Tactile, or kinesthetic, learners learn 'hands-on' and prefer firsthand experience with practical applications.
