Testimonials—Teams & Organizations
“A strong team is the foundation of a successful organization. Freedom Finders provides our team the time and tools to identify our complementary strengths and abilities, enabling us to leverage our differences for greater impact. Enneagram work is rewarding in giving us the chance to grow personally as well as professionally, and Carrie and Pauline are amazing ambassadors. They show up fully and with compassion. They hold space and inspire true connection. Prioritizing our work with them has enabled our team to move smoothly through a period of growth, leaving each training stronger than we entered.”
—Laurie Andrews, President, Community Foundation of Jackson Hole
“Our staff experience over several sessions with Freedom Finders was superb. Of course Carrie and Pauline are exceedingly knowledgeable when it comes to all things Enneagram. And, they deliver the material with great skill and sensitivity, pacing the work in such a way that the whole team is able to learn and work together. Both in between our sessions and after we completed the course, I’ve found increased self and social awareness in our collaborative work environment. With increased understanding of ourselves and our colleagues, our workflow has improved and barriers once difficult to navigate in our office are minor speed bumps.
Whether you are looking toward Freedom Finders for greater understanding of yourself or more insight into how your team can successfully co-work or both of those goals, Carrie and Pauline receive my highest recommendation.”
—Rev. Jimmy Bartz, Rector, St. John’s Episcopal Church
“There are a lot of options when it comes to team building. Much of it can feel like checking a box or something that’s nice to do but not a ‘must do.’
Put working with Freedom Finders on your ‘must do’ list.
Carrie and Pauline provide facilitation that is thoughtful, skillful, and impactful. They present the Enneagram in a way that offers team members the opportunity to find deeper connection and compassion with and for themselves and each other. The work continues to permeate and unfold for individuals on both a personal and team level. Learning with Freedom Finders is enlivening and empowering: it is an exceptionally worthwhile investment of organizational time and resources that continues to pay dividends daily for our team and our clients.”
—Sharel Lund, Executive Director, One22 Resource Center
"While serving as chair of the Governance Committee for St John’s Health Board of Trustees, I worked with Carrie and Pauline to conduct a workshop that would allow everyone to get to know each other quickly and in a deeply meaningful way. This was a dynamic board composed of accomplished current and former executives who had not yet met in person as a group. The Enneagram expertise and facilitation skills of Carrie and Pauline resulted in a very successful workshop and I believe helped accelerate the integration of our team. Personally, the Enneagram work I did with Carrie and Pauline as part of this effort provided me with new and remarkably useful personal insights. Over my professional career I have participated in many leadership and team development activities, this was definitely one of the best. Thank you, Freedom Finders!”
—Sue Critzer, Former Board Member, St. John’s Health
“Carrie and Pauline are world class facilitators and Enneagram Guides. Our team gained great insight into our personality types through our work with Freedom Finders, and we continue to learn how we can incorporate this knowledge to enhance our communication and achieve better results as a high functioning organization. Thank you, Carrie and Pauline!"
—Brandon Johnson, CEO, JFG Wealth
“Our staff of 10 employees has been working with Freedom Finders for over a year in preparation for organizational growth and transitions ahead. This time together has been a richly rewarding journey for all staff members. We now have a common language and excellent tools for understanding ourselves and each other better. These gifts have helped us forge stronger connections and utilize better communication skills. As a result, we feel better equipped to face the challenges and the joys as we guide the evolution of our organization, while honoring the different perspectives in the room. The generosity of spirit Carrie and Pauline bring to this work has gifted us the abilities to honor ourselves and each other as we move forward. Thank you, Carrie… thank you, Pauline!”
—Babs Case, Executive Director, Dancers’ Workshop
“Thank you for a wonderful series of programs...and the amazing resources you just sent. Our Enneagram work with you has been one of the most impactful things we have done to bring our team together! We have participated in other personality typing/ team building programs, and we all agree that the Enneagram has been by far the most informative and helpful to us as individuals and as a team. Through the three sessions with you we learned about our Enneagram types and the value each type can bring to the team. And we were introduced to strategies for communicating and working together more effectively as a team. I highly recommend the Freedom Finders Enneagram Program as an exceptional tool for any organization. Thank you again for your excellent and insightful work with our management team!”
—Patti Boyd, Executive Director, Children’s Learning Center
"Having been part of two different teams for whom Pauline and Carrie provided Enneagram discovery and training, I can attest to the excellent guiding, facilitation, and expertise they deliver. I thoroughly appreciate their ability to be really present with a group, and hear and reflect things in what people are saying that allow individuals and teams to go deeper. It speaks volumes to me about the caliber of trainers when participants tell me they think a training would have broad appeal to other members of our organization, and that's what folks had to say about working with Carrie and Pauline."
