Dr. Pickering recently spoke at our work conference on the enneagram- how having a deeper understanding allows us to better know ourselves and mesh as a team. It was an excellent session. Whether you’re a seasoned enneagram connoisseur or someone looking to foster a more effective team, Dr. Pickering is someone who can bring value to your organization. Two thumbs up!

Dr. Pickering is very knowledgeable, professional, and presented a wonderful Enneagram session for our corporate retreat. For me personally, it was very insightful to learn more about myself and where I can improve and thrive. I am very appreciative of the opportunity to learn from Dr. Pickering and would recommend her for any organization that is committed to personal and leadership development.

I really enjoyed Natalie’s Enneagram discussion at our work conference. She was fun and personable, joked and laughed with everyone and rolled with the punches when there was technical issues. She did a great job breaking down each type too which was super interesting. Looking forward to learning more about the Enneagram on my own!

Natalie has a wonderful way of using her soft voice and intentional words to open up a part of your brain that allows the good and the bad to explore how to use both in building strong leadership skills and making the best version of yourself. I love reading her blogs and have found several of them extremely helpful. I would most definitely take the opportunity to hear her speak, read her blog, or get personalized coaching.

High Places Coaching and Consulting is an incredible resource to anyone looking to better understand yourself and your work style. Just from a brief discussion I challenged Dr. Pickering if she knew could tell my enneagram. She avoids type casting people but I continued to push and challenge her. And boy did she deliver. Not only did she know my type, but she also listed likely adjacent ones as well. She was dead on and continued to discuss opportunities with me. I can't recommend connecting with them enough!

I’ve had the pleasure of taking one of Natalie’s Eneagram classes, and she cares so much about using psychology to help people grow and understand more about themselves. She has the heart of a teacher at all times, and when your time with her is over you feel more empowered to conquer the day. I loved working with Natalie and would do it again in a heartbeat. 💯
