Soul Care for Leaders | Personality Profiling | James Catford

In this episode, James Catford reads from one of his earlier articles published in Preach magazine, reflecting on the role of personality profiling in Christian leadership. Drawing on his own journey from initial scepticism to thoughtful engagement, James explores tools such as Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram, and how they have shaped his self-understanding and leadership practice.

As he reads and reflects, James considers how personality assessments can help leaders navigate the complexities of human relationships, strengthen communication, and foster healthier team dynamics. He also offers a careful warning against using these tools to label or limit others, instead encouraging their wise and compassionate use as aids to growth, understanding, and collaboration in ministry and beyond.
