Gayle Scott is a veteran of Hollywood film and television production with over 20 years' experience in all aspects of production, having worked extensively in Europe, Africa, Australia, Canada and the U.S. In the mid '90's, her work with actors inspired her to combine her professional expertise with her passion for the Enneagram. She began employing the Enneagram as a tool for psychological character development in script development and film acting, leading to her pioneering specialty of Enneagram Consultant to Actors and Screenwriters. Her clientele has included many well-known actors, opera singers, writers and directors.

Gayle discovered the Enneagram in 1989 and began her Enneagram training with Don Riso and Russ Hudson in 1993. She is a certified senior teacher and faculty member of the Riso-Hudson Enneagram Institute. With Russ Hudson, she co-teaches Riso-Hudson Enneagram Trainings, Workshops, and Teacher Certification courses across the U.S and around the world.

A founding Board Member of the Southern California chapter of the International Enneagram Association, and former Director of the Enneagram Institute of Los Angeles, Gayle relocated to Boulder, Colorado, in 2002 to pursue her ongoing psycho-spiritual studies in the Ridhwan/ Diamond Approach School.

She has taught at Naropa University School of Extended Studies in Boulder, and consults and teaches Enneagram workshops and trainings both locally and internationally. She has served on the IEA Global Board of Directors since 2004.  She was the the Director of the 2005 and 2010 IEA Global Enneagram Conferences in San Francisco.

"Gayle brings a delightful range of gifts to her teaching, including depth in multiple wisdom traditions, research connecting neuroscience to personality, and stimulating explorations of types as they show up in public figures and film. Gayle clearly models the work and makes the Enneagram come alive in many rich and meaningful ways for students."

"I have attended both Part I and Part III training through the Enneagram Institute taught jointly by Russ Hudson and Gayle Scott. Gayle has an exhaustive knowledge of the Enneagram material, but more impressive than her ability to teach the academic portions of the topics is her ability to convey her comprehension of the deeper aspects of the Enneagram."

"When I think of Gayle's presentation style, the word 'grace' comes to mind as she presents herself and the material with an apparent effortless, flowing style in which her genuine concern for others clearly comes across."

"She has a delightful sense of humor and there is always a smiling twinkle in her eye. I feel privileged to have been taught by a woman who lives what she teaches."
