 Travels with Odysseus retells the adventures of the Greek hero Odysseus as wise counsel for our present day journey. No Greek hero was more human than Odysseus: he gets sidetracked, enchanted, waylaid. Some truths he learns easily and others he resists. In all of this, Odysseus is not so different than the rest of us. His experiences are a guide for those who lead, coach, make decisions and resolve conflict. No previous knowledge of The Odyssey required.

Travels With Odysseus, Uncommon Wisdom From Homer's Odyssey
by Michael Goldberg
reviewed by Lynette Sheppard
Travels With Odysseus is a must-read tome for any Enneagram enthusiast. Author Michael Goldberg engagingly retells Homer's Odyssey, a mythic journey to Home, with a twist. Odysseus' home is Ithaca, but Home is actually the place where he is known and accepted for his true self stripped of false assumptions and identity. Each of the ‘stops' on Odysseus' long sojourn corresponds to the passion or fixation of one of the nine Enneagram types. We travel with Odysseus around the outer circle of the diagram, from Point Nine to Point One before ultimately reaching Home.
