Co-Worker Compatibility of Type 2 and Type 8

May 30, 2023
The Similarities and Differences of Enneagram Type 2 and Type 5  on the Enneagram MBA Podcast

 

 

Do Type 2s and Type 8s get along at work? 

What should each type know about working with each? 

What should they know about working with someone of the same type? 

Join us for this co-worker compatibility conversation with Hannah, Sarah, and Julie from the Cincinnati Children's Hospital as we explore the strengths and challenges of their individual Enneagram types in the workplace and gain valuable insights on each type's communication style, collaboration preferences, and personal growth realizations.

When you listen in, you'll hear about:

  • How Hannah, a Type 8, thrives in her strength while navigating vulnerability and being misinterpreted
  • Sarah, a Type 2,  shares her empathetic nature and passion for helping others, even at her own expense at times
  • Julie, also a Type 8, and the importance of standing up for those without a voice and the impact of gender dynamics on other Enneagram Type 8s

 


This episode can help anyone looking to better understand their Type 2 and Type 8 teammates.
