Jean-Pierre’s extensive experience in masculine/feminine distinctions, has facilitated his teaching of "relationships by numbers".
Tongue-in-cheek, he uses that expression to convey the powerful understanding and insight that one gets when a relationship is appreciated through the respective enneagram personality types of the participants. The personality descriptions are matched to a number to allow for a communication short-hand. For example, the personality type 3 is the "Achiever/Presenter".

In our programs and retreats, we quickly get to the advanced understanding that there are 2 types of 3s: "The Star" and "The Professional". These distinctions allow us to develop a deeper appreciation of ourselves and those with whom we are in significant relationships.
Extraordinarily, Jean-Pierre has discovered a correlation between enneagram numbers and feminine/masculine influences. His model matches the elegance of the enneagram wisdom, borrowing on the 3 distinctions: leaders, supporters, and allowers.
