This study aims to analyze the supervision styles of supervisors in social welfare centers according to the enneagram personality types and to explore the characteristics of the supervisors. Data was collected from 28 supervisors of social welfare centers. In-depth interviews were performed by using semi-structured questionnaires, the enneagram personality tests were taken, and the contents of recorded data were analyzed through transcription. In this analysis, the styles of the supervisors according to the enneagram personality types were clarified on the basis of their common features as follows.
Firstly, the supportive style or heart center stresses the relationship between supervisor and supervisee; it includes the helper-, facilitator-, and reflector-styles. Secondly, the supervisors exhibiting the education style or head center teach and guide their supervisees; the analyst-, guidance-, and energizer-styles would be included in this category. Thirdly, the administering style or body center stresses the plan, practice, and harmony of organization management; it includes the directive person-, mediator-, and planner-styles. Based on the results of this study, suggested implications were discussed.
