In this extra-special episode of Enneagram at Work, I’m joined by not one, but three guests from the leadership team at 3D Dentists:T-Bone (Type 8) – Owner of 3D Dentists and practicing dentist at Raleigh Dental ArtsMeredith (Type 2/3) – Business Director at 3D DentistsMegan (Type 1/8) – Dental Hygienist and Operations Director at Raleigh Dental ArtsI first met this crew at their high-energy 3D Dentists Summit in Nashville, and I knew they'd bring the fun and real-world insights. This conversation is part workplace case study, part leadership roundtable, and part “real talk” about working closely with very different personalities.We dig into:How their Enneagram types shape their leadership styles, communication, and decision-makingThe pet peeves that can cause tension, and how they work through themWhy trust, directness, and humor keep their team strong (even when they clash)Lessons they’ve learned about delegating, giving feedback, and balancing two intertwined businessesHow understanding type dynamics has changed the way they work with each other and their broader teamsWhether you’re leading a practice, managing a department, or trying to navigate strong personalities on your team, you’ll walk away with practical takeaways for building trust, reducing friction, and creating your own version of a “dream team.”Learn more about 3D Dentists:3D Dentists – CE training, business coaching & live patient implant trainingRaleigh Dental Arts – Dental practice serving the Raleigh, NC areaHave a request for a future episode?
