What happens when a team is heavily made up of Type 8s (striving to feel powerful) and Type 1s (striving to feel perfect)? You get a powerhouse mix of decisiveness, integrity, and high standards—but also a workplace that might feel intense, perfectionistic, and high-pressure.In this episode of Enneagram at Work, we’re analyzing a real-life team map where Type 8 and Type 1 were the dominant types—alongside a strong presence of Type 7s and 9s.We’ll cover:The Strengths of an 8 & 1 Dominant Team – Why this mix creates a culture of accountability, ethical decision-making, and getting things done fast.The Challenges & Blind Spots – How this combination can feel intimidating, overly critical, or resistant to emotional awareness.How Type 7s & 9s Balance the Team – Why these types are essential for optimism, adaptability, and keeping things from becoming too rigid.Practical Strategies to Make This Team More Effective – How to celebrate wins, encourage collaboration, and ensure all voices are heard.Whether you’re leading a team with strong Type 8 & 1 energy or working in one, this episode will give you the insights you need to navigate this dynamic with confidence.Have a request for a future episode?
