EP184: The Anatomy of Your Enneagram Type: The Enneagram FIVE—Introverts Can ‘People’ Too!

The Enneagram 5, also known as the Investigator or Quiet Specialist, is the most introverted of the Enneagram types.

But that doesn’t mean that 5s can’t learn to collaborate or develop healthy interpersonal relationships.

In fact, 5s who understand the anatomy of their Enneagram type can play well with others, leveraging their knowledge and expertise to bring their visionary ideas to life.

On this episode of The Leadership Formula, I discuss the Enneagram 5’s motivational need to know and understand, describing how their ability to detach emotionally can either be a gift or a wrecking ball.

I explain how the Enneagram 5 runs from pain under extreme stress and why it can be challenging for 5s to take action.

Listen in for insight on what 5s can do to connect with their heart, protect their energy and improve their relationships with other people!
