Burnout isn't a vibe; it's a system failure-of bodies, teams, and the stories we tell ourselves at work. Shock Point shows leaders, coaches, and HR the missing lever: how different Enneagram types and subtypes break down under pressure-and how they reliably recover.
Dr. Chad Prevost translates the best of popular psychology into a fast, practical field guide for modern organizations. You'll recognize real stress patterns (not pop-type clichés), learn targeted interventions for every type, and build a culture that prevents burnout instead of reacting to it.
This is not another "self-care" pep talk or a personality party trick. It's a playbook for sustainable performance-clear language, concrete practices, and team-facing tools you can use Monday morning. If you advise people, manage people, or are people, this book will help you do the work without losing yourself in it.

You'll move past generic "stress management" and into precision coaching that actually changes behavior at work.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
What sets Shock Point apart is its sober blend of evidence, lived experience, and team-ready application: clear explanations of burnout vs. stress, the convergence of modern stress research with Enneagram praxis, and practical moves leaders can deploy immediately. It reframes the Enneagram from personality trivia into an operating system for human performance-useful in coaching, mentoring, HR, and day-to-day management.
