Discovering the Enneagram was a turning point for him. It not only validated who he was at his core but also enabled him to understand his father better and allowed him to move on from the wounds of his past. This is why Jarrod believes in the life-changing power of the Enneagram and aims to empower others through his training and coaching.
He is an ex Ministry of Education primary school teacher with 15 years of teaching experience under his belt. It is on this firm foundation as an educator that he is able to see the application of the Enneagram in not only the lives of the adults who attend the courses but also how it would impact future generations as well. After leaving the education service in 2013, he went on to become a Senior Teacher for English and eventually took on an Acting Vice Principal role in a local private institute.
Armed with a Masters in Education specialising in Leadership, Policy and Change from Monash University, he is also able to see how the Enneagram can help leaders elevate their skills by using the Enneagram framework to enhance their managerial and communication skills to speak into the lives of the people put under their care; and to help them become better versions of themselves by raising their self-awareness of who they are through the lens of the Enneagram.
