— MAPPING AND DEVELOPING SALES POTENTIAL

EnneaSales™ Test is our behavioural and aptitude assessment designed for sales, account management and engaging with prospective customers. Using a proprietary model based on the Enneagram of Personality, we help professionals and organisations understand how different profiles build relationships with customers and prospects, develop opportunities and approach negotiation.

The results highlight your natural sales style, what helps you work effectively and the areas to focus on. They provide a practical starting point for developing individual and team potential.

— ANALYTICAL TOOLS

Report and indicators

The Sales Growth Mindset indicator developed for EnneaSales™ Test is grounded in sales research, including Novell, Machleit and Sojka (2016) on implicit theories of selling ability; Angela Duckworth, Christopher Peterson, Michael Matthews and Dennis Kelly (2007) on grit in salespeople; and Spiro and Weitz on adaptive selling. Dweck’s work (1999) also provides the theoretical basis for the scales on implicit theories of intelligence.
