Article Overview: Business leaders continuously evaluate their business results and their business tactics to ensure optimum benefits for the business. They want to know what works best in terms of costs and of profits. When making this evaluation, leaders usually follow up with an evaluation of their personal strengths and weaknesses, because they know that the quality of their interpretation of events has a direct effect on business results. This sort of orientation is more or less standard for most progressive business establishments.

Business Leaders and the Three Brains of Neuroscience
Business leaders continuously evaluate their business results and their business tactics to ensure optimum benefits for the business. They want to know what works best in terms of costs and of profits. When making this evaluation, leaders usually follow up with an evaluation of their personal strengths and weaknesses, because they know that the quality of their interpretation of events has a direct effect on business results. This sort of orientation is more or less standard for most progressive business establishments.
In addition, more and more business leaders are receptive to new approaches for improving business results. One such approach is the concept of the balanced use of the three intelligences proposed by neuroscience.
Neuroscience has labeled the three intelligences ‘'the head, heart, and gut intelligences'', as discussed by Robert K Cooper, Ph.D. in his article ''A New Neuroscience of Leadership''. According to that concept, the business leader who makes balanced use of his three intelligences is bound to be more successful in his endeavors than the leader who doesn't.
Various psychologists have jumped on the bandwagon of business improvement. They recommend as very useful for business people the study of the enneagram, a symbol they consider to be an excellent basis for analyzing one's strengths and weaknesses. One of the better known enneagram systems is that of Myers-Briggs who outline on the enneagram different descriptions of people, each description referring to a different type of persons. Each type purportedly deals differently with the world that surrounds them. This is true of everyone, including, of course, the business leader.
A close study of the origin of the enneagram reveals that it is not a symbol invented by contemporary psychologists but one that dates back to pre-historic times. Sages of old read into the enneagram a meaning of human characteristics which they likened to the characteristics then known about the six planets Mars, Jupiter, Moon, Venus, Mercury, and Saturn. What this means is that the ancients were already thinking in terms of six human types. It shows that fundamentally the historic enneagram already reflects the concept of SIX CLASSIC HUMAN TYPES. The enneagrams of contemporary psychologists, on the other hand, including that of Myers-Briggs, describe 9 or more human types (16 in the case of Myers-Briggs), as they do not take into account the historic origins of the enneagram.
On its part, ThreeBrainSynergy.com (TBS) adheres to the concept of SIX CLASSIC HUMAN TYPES. TBS consider it very important to point out that regardless of the type to which people belong, every person is different from everyone else, because in the end no two persons make exactly the same use of the three intelligences. Typology is not a scientifically precise and static classification of people but a guide to improved general understanding of people.
