***Lisa, I don't understand! It seems you are looking at types and saying 3 must seek leadership and the 4 wing is artistic, so 3w4 is enterprising first, artistic second. And vice versa with 4w3. I can say the same thing with all your examples. I do not think it holds.
You don;t add different qualities of two types and arrive at a subtype like 2w3, etc. I don't believe that is the way it is done.
> Ever heard of the Holland system of career types? The six main Holland orientations:
> Realistic: prefer practical, hands on work
> Investigative: like working that involves thinking and problem solving
> Artistic: prefer creative, unstructured work
> Social: like work that involves helping others
> Enterprising: seek leadership and high status jobs
> Conventional: like structured, predictable, secure jobs
> Here is how I think they correlate to enneagram types:
> 1w2: conventional with social or enterprising
> 1w9: conventional with investigative or realistic
> 2w1: social with conventional
> 2w3: social with enterprising
> 3w2: enterprising with social
> 3w4: enterprising with artistic
> 4w3: artisitic with enterprising
> 4w5: artistic with investigative
> 5w4: investigative with artistic
> 5w6: investigative with conventional or realistic
> 6w5: conventional with investigative or realistic
> 6w7: conventional with enterprising
> 7w6: ?
> 7w8: ? probably low conventional though
> 8w7: enterprising
> 8w9: enterprising with realistic?
> 9w1: conventional with investigative?
> 9w8: conventional with realistic
> Lisa 1w9, investigative/conventional/artistic (ok I don't fit the norm for 1w9. I have alot of 4 in me)
