You are listening to the Enneagram at Work podcast. I am your host, Sarah Wallace, founder and managing director here at Enneagram MBA. And we are in the middle of a series where we're doing an overview on each of the types, specifically how they show up at work, strengths, overuse strengths, feedback styles, both how they prefer to have it received or a starting point anyway for how they might like to have it received, giving feedback, potential miscommunication, friction points that might show up if you are a type that we're covering, some things to experiment with, to grow, if you happen to be working with one of those types, some things to think about to be a supportive teammate. And so we have covered types one, two, three, and four so far. We are going to be continuing on next week with type five, but with the Thanksgiving holiday, and you may or may not be listening to this in real time, but with the Thanksgiving holiday having just been celebrated here in the US, we're gonna do a little themed episode, focusing on really the strengths of each type, a couple of strengths, and then pulling out things to potentially appreciate about your teammate. Now, as always, these are tendencies, common themes that we might see in the types. At the end of the day, though, there is no way to predict behavior based on somebody's type. But these are some things to look for. And so my hope is that you will hopefully already be appreciating your teammate for some of these things. But maybe today's episode gives you a different lens or maybe some new language or a little bit deeper insight into why it is that you appreciate them so much so that you can specifically share that with them. Um, also, it may come up that there may be some things that frustrate you about a coworker, but maybe hearing the list, if you happen to know their type or maybe just recognize some of their behaviors, that you might still get frustrated with them. That's that's to be expected, that's normal. Um, but hopefully maybe there's something, a thing or two that you can pull out of here to also pair with what you appreciate about them. So with that, uh let's get into looking at the things that we appreciate about each of the types. Now we always start with either one or nine. So we're gonna jump into the middle and we're gonna start with type five. And our type five, as a reminder, are striving to feel detached. And this just simply means that I don't want to get too entangled into your life and then be expected to, you know, be have the pressure of being needed. I don't want you to necessarily get too entangled in my life, and I want to be able to work alone and do the things that I want to do. I don't want to get emotionally entangled in your drama. They tend to have pretty healthy boundaries. And I think sometimes this can feel or sound negative, but it really is, it can be such a strength and it can be such a skill. And because of that, striving to feel detached, our fives have a tendency to be really logical, really rational, and some things to appreciate them as a teammate. If you happen to be working with a type five, or I will also say if you're listening to this, maybe some things to appreciate about yourself, to give yourself credit for. And so for the type five, because of that skill set that we just talked about that goes along with striving to feel detached, they do tend to have some really clear thinking, clear and calm thinking. And in a moment of stress or maybe some bad news, um, or even you know, getting overly excited, these are the people who are going to be pretty calm, cool, collect, regardless of the temperature of the room. And how nice is it to have somebody like that in the room when things are getting heated, when it feels like the world is ending. You have the type five teammate coming in with that rationale, with that logical approach to whatever it is, and saying, hey, it feels bad right now, but let's really look at the numbers. Let's really look at the data, let's really look at the information to see what's actually happening here. And then we can problem solve. So another thing that you might appreciate about your type five teammate is the way that they can bring their expertise to the table. And when they're really dialed in, they bring it without their ego and they bring that information, that analysis, that thinking, that observing, and they bring it to the team for hopefully some creative problem solving to add value to the conversation. And we can really appreciate that whatever it is that they're sharing isn't just some impulsive idea, isn't some impulsive feeling. They've really thought it through. And so we can really appreciate that about our type five teammates, knowing that what they share comes from deep experience and expertise. We also have potentially something to appreciate about your type five teammate is their ability, again, when they're really dialed in, to be able to break down complex ideas to be able to be kind of bite-sized for the rest of us. And we don't need maybe the whole story. They break it down, they explain it to us like we're in second grade. Yes, they might be able to like know it through and through on a PhD type of level. Um, but when they're really dialed in, they can be incredibly good kind of explainers, be able to pass along that information in a way that's easy to understand and consume for the rest of us. Um, and then they also can bring some smarter long-term decision making. I would also say some creative problem solving. I mentioned that just a minute ago. But because of all this expertise and experience and information that they're collecting, their observations, their ability to analyze all this data that they're collecting, they really can add a ton of insight, valuable or invaluable at times, insight to the decision-making process and be able to come up with some solutions. Maybe that the rest of us have been banging our heads over this problem, but because they bring this all this information and this the way that they it's connected, it can be so incredibly helpful. So a gratitude line or a gratitude um message that you might pull from for inspiration if you're wanting to share something that you're thankful for for with your top five teammate, is might be something along the lines of we appreciate your thoughtfulness, your deep knowledge, and the clarity that you bring when things feel overwhelming. And I love that last part when things feel overwhelming, um, because they they again they can be a really steady, calming presence. I think type nines also have this energy that just kind of comes naturally. But for our fives, I I really like some of those things. So I hope that you can pull from that as you think about hey, what do I want to, what do I want to share with my type five teammate? All right, our type sixes, striving to feel secure. Again, focused on risk assessment, risk management, contingency planning, being prepared. And so when that person on our team is focused in on those things, they're really dialed in, some things to appreciate about this energy is their risk awareness and their ability to most likely prevent a disaster. They're thinking things through. Um, they're looking for what might go wrong to be able to protect the team, to protect the organization. Another thing to appreciate about them is their commitment to the well-being of the group. So they're looking out for those risks and threats because they care so deeply about their team, about their department, about the organization. They want to protect not just themselves. They don't just want themselves to feel safe and secure. They want their teams, the people that they care about at work, to also be safe and secure. Um, and then they also have an ability to, and I would say an ability and the courage. I think that's an important thing to also call out. Like, wow, I really appreciate your courage to call these things out. Um, to call out potential blind spots that the rest of us might ignore because we're so excited, because we want to move so fast, because um we have a big goal we want to hit, a number we need to hit. And so we're just going kind of full force, but they are able to kind of slow us down a little bit and give us some things to think about so that we don't run off a cliff without having any sort of net at the bottom, any sort of parachute packed. And this is such an important person on any team. And they get a reputation sometimes for being Debbie Downers, negative, pessimistic people. But these people can can be and are incredible teammates. Uh, I would also say that, and I think this isn't just for sixes, but what I hear a lot when we when we do an exercise sometimes where we call out the strengths of our teammates. Um, sixes a lot of times are specifically called out for their ability to be really dependable, um, really there for the group, giving it to people straight, but also coming from a place of deep care for that other person or the team. So a gratitude note that you might give to them or say to them in some version might be we really appreciate your steadiness, your reliability, the way you think ahead so the whole team can operate safely and confidently. Maybe there's some version of that that you want to share with your type six teammate about what you appreciate with them. Now, I will also say these are not comprehensive lists. I'm just pulling out three or four key things that tend to come up often. Um, but it is by no means the only thing that we can appreciate about each of one of these types. And there may be something that I'm talking about in a type six list, but you know for a fact your teammate is a type three, but that's the thing that you appreciate most about them. Well, by all means, let them know that that is the thing that you appreciate about them. The the again, this is just some um some common tendencies to give you some additional insight, some additional ideas for what to look for and letting your teammates know how you appreciate them rather than just, hey, I appreciate you or you did a great job, or uh, you know, I feel supported by you. I mean, that's a great one too, but getting a little bit more detailed. Okay, so as we go along, type seven, striving to feel excited. Um, as a reminder, these these types are drawn towards adventure and new ideas, and they do have a lot of enthusiasm. They can get other people excited. So, some things to appreciate them is their ability to energize and uplift a room. They got they are able to sell a new idea, a new initiative, get the room. Maybe they were, you know, maybe the room was kind of down or something wasn't going well, or you know, it felt like a lot of work with this new initiative. And a seven can put that spin on it and see the good about what's possible here, the potential that this new idea has, or this new member of our team that just joined us is going to have and really take the energy of the room up a notch as far as positivity and energy. Um, they also have an ability to be very adaptable. They can they're kind of the only type that I don't think they want bad change necessarily, but they are more comfortable and and almost any type of change can excite them initially. And so, and they do have the positive outlook most of the time that they'll figure out a way for it, it'll work out somehow. Somehow it will work out, whatever change this is. And so they do kind of have a you know, what's ever thrown at me, uh I'm gonna be able to adjust to. And because of that adaptability, I would say they're also, they can also be really resilient. And again, what an incredible leader, what an incredible teammate to some to have somebody sitting next to you during hard, uncertain times with this type of energy. Um, the other thing that I have on this list is that they keep the team moving forward. Our threes, our sevens, our eights are known as the assertive types. When we um when we look at some of the Enneagram theories that refer to stances, three, sevens, eights are in that let's go far, let's go fast. So it makes sense that sevens, one of their strengths, things to be grateful for in their that teammate is that they do, they keep the team moving. And they keep them moving, not because not out of fear, not because they're controlling them, but because they're inspiring hope, they're inspiring possibility, they're leading and and guiding their team with an open mind. And that can feel really exciting to be led by, to work next to. Um, I talked about the fives being creative problem solvers. I also think something that we might appreciate in our type sevens is also their creative problem solving. And it's gonna be, it's gonna come from a different place. It's probably gonna come from a place of options and curiosity and potential and possibility and hopefulness. Um fives have a little bit of that too, maybe. Um, but they can be, they they can also be incredibly creative problem solvers. So those are some ideas, some things to appreciate in your teammate, just kind of painting the picture of what's possible. You know, also I will add, just as I'm talking, I will also add their um their ability to think outside the box. And so there is something to be said for a tried and true, proven method, proven system. Sometimes, though, the way that we've always done things needs to be spiced up a little bit. And our sevens are gonna bring those creative problem solving skills to that, see things from a different lens, maybe put a fresh, creative, interesting spin on how we might be doing something, how we might be able to do something different or better. So for our seven, something to think about when we're when we're thinking about what we're grateful for, how we want to thank them. It might be something along the lines of we we appreciate your optimism, we appreciate your ideas, and the way that you remind us that work can be fun, creative, and full of possibility. I love that one so much. The way that you remind us that work can be fun, creative, and full of possibility. So I hope there's something in there that um rings true for you, for your type seven teammate that you would be comfortable sharing with them. Our type eight, striving to feel powerful as a reminder, they're focused on the big picture, similar to the seven, but power, control, understanding and respecting that power control, not being taken advantage of, avoiding being vulnerable. And so, because of that, some things to appreciate when they're really dialed in is their ability to be incredibly protective. Um, they have this protective strength and they're going to advocate and stand up for their teammates and their team. Um type eight leaders can make their team feel incredibly supported with this energy. It feels like, okay, I know that, yeah, maybe my manager expects a lot. Yeah, maybe they've given me some harsh feedback in the past that stung a little, but it was true. But I know when I really need them that they are going to have my back. These are kind of the ride or die uh managers, leaders, and maybe you might disagree in in private, but in public, these people, this, these people have you. Um the other thing to appreciate is this concept of clear is kind. So they have a willingness to call out truths that others might avoid. And sometimes those truths that other people are avoiding, it very well might be difficult to say. And I don't know that eights are running around necessarily loving to give difficult feedback. It's just that this needs to be said, and I have the courage to to say it, and I'm gonna say it directly, and I wanna be kind, but I want to be clear. And so on the receiving end, or maybe in the moment, we may not be grateful for this teammate. But if they if they are dialed in with their strengths, if they're self-aware, taking care of their their selves, their growth, um, what they say is most likely going to come from a place of care, even if maybe the tone's off a little bit, or maybe their seems a little harsh, or it's like, oh, this is the thing that I am so sensitive about that I try and hide. They're gonna call it out. And it and it might hurt in that moment, but afterwards, you might, after you've had time to process, again, if depending on where their intention behind it, um, it could be some of the best feedback that helps you grow, that helps you get the promotion, deals with a problem um that you've been struggling with. We can also appreciate that directness and that clarity, kind of along the same lines, but you never have to, I don't want to say never, I want to be careful of absolutes, but you rarely have to wonder uh what did they really mean by that? What does that tone mean? What does their email really mean? What's behind this? They're saying one thing, but I'm seeing different body language, or they're saying one thing, but I know that they're gonna leave this meeting and say another thing. I mean, again, you may not love what they're saying, but you can trust what they're saying is what they really believe. There's no hidden meaning behind it, there's no secret message underneath that you're supposed to figure out. Um, and honestly, that can feel so safe. It can feel so nice, it can feel so um comfortable to work next to somebody who it's like, okay, didn't love that ouch, that hurt a little bit, but appreciate that honesty. And then similar to the seven, how they're able to really get everybody to rally, keep the team moving. The eight can do the same, but by bringing that courage, that intense energy, that momentum to. Tough decisions, they're not going to allow their team to get stuck in paralysis analysis. They're going to keep them moving, keep them pushing forward. And they have a belief in themselves and can believe in their team enough to say, you know, this is where we're, this is with based on the information that we have at this moment, this is the direction we're going. And if it's not the right decision, I believe that we will figure out how to get to the right decision. But we just have to move. We can't be sitting here in paralysis analysis anymore. Um, and that can be an awesome person to work for or work next to. So a gratitude message to them might be something like, we appreciate or I appreciate your boldness, I appreciate your honesty, the way that you stand up for what's right, and the way that you stand up for the people who need protecting. And maybe you share a specific example of when you felt protected by them or you felt like they stood up for you. So hopefully there's something in there that you can call out with your type eight teammate. Our type nine striving to feel at peace. These people, as you remember, tend to be very inclusive. They want everybody to feel like they belong, get everybody's voices heard. They're known as the consensus builder with their leadership style. And they really are able to bring everybody together. They truly want people to feel heard and seen. They have this ability to mediate. They have this ability to unify and include everybody. Hence the consensus builder. That makes sense. And so this is a great one that I hear many people talk about, their type nine teammate, that they really appreciate. Um, other things might be their steady reliability, that calming presence, especially the calm under pressure presence, a little similar to the five. The nine has that as well, where people say they walk in, they sit next to me, or they walk in, and I know they're going to be delivering some hard news, but it just feels more calming when they're sitting next to me or when they're the one delivering this. Um, and then because of that focus and the lens that they see the world through, striving to feel at peace, they do have that power to mediate, to be incredibly influential through consensus building. And so one of their other strengths can be, or that's something else that you might be thankful for them with in a teammate, is their ability to help the team avoid unnecessary drama. You know, maybe tensions are high, that it's getting heated, the conversation's getting heated, and your type nine is gonna step in and do their thing. Their mediating, harmonizing, peacemaking uh strengths are gonna come out there and take the tension down a bit, take it down before it gets too much. Of course, sometimes we need to have that healthy conflict, um, but sometimes it just is drama. And so our type nines are gonna be um really great at stepping in and helping diffuse some of that. So maybe a gratitude message for the type nine on your team might be something like we or I appreciate your ease. We appreciate the your grounding presence. I mean, it really is. Um when they're really dialed in, it can they can be so grounding, so steady, um, especially in a time of crisis and stress. And we really appreciate the way that you help everyone feel like they belong. Oh my God, what a great compliment. What a great compliment. Now, I know for our nines, especially, it's hard. It's hard to take compliments. But if you're listening to this as a type nine, or if you're listening to this as any type, and you feel like, oh my God, if somebody said that to me, I'd be so embarrassed or it would be so uncomfortable. On the receiving end of some of these messages, gratitude messages, I want you to just think, I'm gonna receive it. I receive that. You might even have to say, wow, thank you. I I received that. And you're literally taking that compliment. Don't discount it, don't turn it around and try and self-deprecate. Um, if you have to, just stand there, smile, say thank you, and wiggle your toes if you're that uncomfortable. And I've had to do that at times. And I will say that as somebody who is giving the compliment, when somebody volleys it back from a place of, oh my God, you absolutely'm not good at that. I'm actually terrible, or no, that's not true, or I can't believe you see that in me. You know, it almost makes the person who's giving the compliment then feel bad. And then it's like, oh, well, now I have to justify it. So it really can be such a gift, not only to give this great feedback, um, hopefully truthful feedback of what you see in your teammates, but it can also be such a gift to just to simply receive it. Receive it without any sort of self-deprecating disclaimer. And that can feel so good on the receiving end um or the person giving the compliment to have it truly received. Okay, let's keep going. Our type ones are striving to feel perfect, and these are the type that have a tendency though to see the world through right and wrong, good or bad. They want to do the ethical thing. Um, how can we make things better? Sometimes they're even known as a visionary because they they think are thinking, this is good, but how can we make it great? And so one of the things that you might appreciate about this person when they're really dialed in is there is the pride that they do have in doing things right and not cutting corners. And I know this might be a friction point, depending on how you feel about this statement. Um, but it really can be something that we appreciate in our type one teammate. We appreciate their integrity and their follow-through. We can appreciate and be grateful for their reliability. When they say they're gonna do it, it happens. That's awesome. That's awesome to have in any person in your life, especially a teammate or your manager. I think something else that we might appreciate about our type ones is how they can hold us to a higher standard. And again, we then we may not love that uh at first hearing this. We might think, well, I don't really, I don't love that. Sounds like criticism. Um, but it's because they see that this, this is what your this is what your what's possible for you. I see that your potential. Um, it's a little bit of some seven seeing the world uh through what might go right, possibility, potential. Our ones can also see that. I think that there's a little bit more weight on you got to work hard. Um sevens also work hard. I don't want to say that they don't, but they it's like if you just work hard enough, this is what you're gonna be able to do. If you just continue to do what you're saying say you're gonna do, and I'm gonna help hold you accountable, this is what you're pot, this is what's possible for you. This is what I see in you. And that can that can feel really great to be around is when somebody is hard on you because they do see what's possible for you. If they didn't think you could do it, you know, they probably wouldn't waste time giving you feedback or um holding you accountable or following up with you. Um, and then the other thing that we might appreciate about our type one teammates is their ability to bring order and structure and consistency to the chaos. This is this is another personality where it's like, oh, processes, procedures might sound like a snooze fest to some people. But in certain times and in certain areas, we absolutely need these things so that we can do the creative stuff, so that we can do the fun stuff, so that we have something to celebrate. We are actually getting things done. We are structured, we are organized, we are consistent, we are making things happen, and then we have things to celebrate. And so it's a on our ones a lot of times to get us, you know, get us to the finish line. And so that might be something that you appreciate in your type one teammate that you want to call out. Um, a message to them might be something like we appreciate your steady leadership or we appreciate your steadiness as a coworker. Um, I appreciate your commitment to quality. I know that no matter what you work on, it's going to be excellent. Um, I also appreciate your um the trust that you build with me, with our group, by doing what's right, even when nobody is watching. And that's a big one. And that is one of those to the core of what a type one is about. That's one of their core strengths. So hopefully there's something in there that you can share with your type one teammate, or maybe it inspires something else that's that we haven't listed. Our type two teammate striving to feel connected, some things we might appreciate. Somebody who is focused on others, other people's feelings, being supportive, being helpful, um, is noticing when people are struggling before anybody else does, because they are so dialed in to the people, not just the tasks, not just the goals, not just the work that needs to be done, but the people who are doing it. And when somebody says, Oh, I'm fine, okay, good, great. Uh, two is going to be that person normally saying, No, tell me how you how you really doing. So they have that ability. Um they tend to be the relational glue on a team. They really keep the or they can keep the team human. Remember that, oh, we're not just robots, we are actually humans, having a human experience, probably having hard emotions, happy emotions, all the emotions, um, and kind of humanize the team or the workplace a little bit more. And we need that. We need that balance. Um, they also have have a tendency to be intuitive about who really needs help. Um, kind of goes along with the first one when somebody's struggling. And to add to that, they tend to have a willingness to jump in and help, even if their plate is already full, even if they just help somebody, it's okay, I'm this person needs some additional support. There's something I can do to help them, and I'm willing, I have the willingness to jump in. Um, and then overall, what I hear is that this type of energy, because of their ability to kind of be that relational glue, humanize the workplace, they can also make that workplace a little warmer, a little more personable, a little more united. Um, people really feel connected to one another. Hmm, two striving to feel connected, they can also help other people feel connected. So, a gratitude message that you might share with the type two in your life at work specifically is I really appreciate how you make people feel seen and supported. And oftentimes you can change the entire mood of the team by this energy that you bring, you know, everybody's so focused maybe on the bad news or being stressed or the task at hand. And the the type two can kind of change it up a little bit and remind everybody hey, we're, you know, we're we're human beings here. Um, they have a tendency to really see the best in people. And they feel like I shine when other people shine. And I mean, what again, like so many, like all of these that we've talked about so far, what an amazing quality in a teammate or in a manager. All right. Type three or type threes are striving to feel outstanding. Um, they tend to be focused on success, accomplishment, looking successful and accomplished. And so when that's really dialed in, they have this ability to get people really excited about a goal. A little bit of some seven energy here, um, but really behind a goal. Let's go far, let's go fast. I just mentioned our three, sevens, eights kind of have that forward, uh, future focused, forward momentum uh outlook. They have a drive, um, they have optimism as well. They have that forward movement towards big goals, making big things happen, happening, um, making big things happen. There we go. Uh, accomplishing things that maybe you didn't even think were were possible. They also have an ability to raise the bar just by simply walking into the room because they are doing things excellently. They are successful, they're checking off their to-do lists, they're hitting their goals. And again, when they're really dialed in and they're bringing their team along with them, you want to be next to this person. You want to be a part of their team, you want to be a part of the project that they're working on because they just say, you know what? I I could do this too. I could be excellent. I could, I could, I could, I could make this work too. I could be successful, I could be accomplished like this. Um, and then they have a tendency to model efficiency, finding solutions rather than making excuses. And their leadership style is known as the pace setter because they tend to be right there in the trenches, shoulder to shoulder with their team, modeling, leading by example, not leading from above high on a hill in a tower somewhere. So, your gratitude message for this type on your team, whether it's your manager or your teammate or somebody that you lead, is we or I appreciate your energy, your focus, and the way that you can turn challenges into results that move everybody forward. Um, so hopefully, between the list of things that we appreciate about this type and this gratitude message, there's something in there that might click with the three on your team that you can specifically call out. Um, and I think that again, we're talking kind of general, general themes, common tendencies. I think it would be even more meaningful if you could share one of these specific tendencies that you see in your teammate and then maybe follow it up with a specific example of how that they displayed this to you or how you experienced this particular strength. All right, last but not least is our type fours who are striving to feel unique. And this is the type that tends to have a lot of self-awareness that just comes natural. They do a lot of introspection. Um, they bring a lot of creativity and fresh ideas, approach the world in new and interesting ways. And so those are some things that we were probably gonna appreciate in our type four teammate, their creativity, their emotional depth. They see possibilities that others might miss, which again is a reason maybe why the four and the seven sometimes have some overlap. Um, I don't know if you're also hearing some one in that, which is interesting because our four is connected, has that connecting line to our type one. Um, they're just gonna go about it a different way. That core logic, the message that they're getting, the strategy that they use is just gonna be a little different than striving to feel perfect. It's striving to feel unique. They tend to have a high emotional intelligence level because they do have such a depth for the human experience, have a depth for empathy, understanding that not everybody's gonna be happy, not everybody's gonna be having a good day. They tend to be really in touch with their own emotions. And because of that, they can show up and help others be in touch or hold space for other people's emotions that are beyond happy, fine. Um, and again, what a great teammate, what a great manager, somebody with these qualities. Um, let's see, what else do I have here? They also you might also appreciate their courage to be honest and authentic. Sometimes that might drive you crazy, but sometimes you might really appreciate that. Um, so think about that. Um, and and all of these. It's like, okay, sometimes this might drive me crazy. It's like, oh, they're trying to put a fresh idea, fresh spin on every single thing. Um, but it's coming from a place of honesty, wanting to be authentic. Um, maybe this process that we have been doing with our customers doesn't feel authentic. And they have a new or interesting way to approach a process, to reinvent the way that we interact with our clients or that we interact with our new hires or whatever it might be. Um, so you might appreciate that in them. Um, and then the other thing I had is their ability to name the why behind the work. These people tend to need and be able to um connect the work with a higher purpose. And so they can fill out a spreadsheet, I always say it may not be their dream job, but if as long as they can connect it to meaning and purpose, they're gonna be able to do it. And so they can help the team kind of sell whatever work we need to do and tie it to it's because this is deeply important, it's deeply meaningful, and this is how. Um, and then they also have an incredible ability to storytell because they are so in touch with their own emotions, because they are so um empathetic and understanding with other people's experience, they're able to add in some of that influence and uh even be great salespeople because of their ability to storytell and not just list facts and numbers, but also tell a story that has emotion and you know is relatable through a human experience lens. So a gratitude message that you might share with your type for teammate is hey, I really appreciate your creativity, the the fresh and interesting ways that you approach the work that we do. I appreciate your insight, your unique insight, and I appreciate the way that you help us connect to meaning and not just the metrics. And again, ah, what a great quality in a leader, what a great quality in a teammate. So hopefully there's something in there that you can pull from and add in a specific example for your own type four teammate if you happen to have one. Um that is our list. Again, this isn't a comprehensive list. Um, there's probably going to be things that I missed. And so if I did miss something that you feel like, oh, I can't believe she missed this with the type three or for the type five. Um, as always, let me know. I would love to. To hear your feedback. Um, you can share that feedback, those comments at enneagrammba.com forward slash contact and just type your your message, what we might have missed in the box right there. Um I don't think that we most of us take the time to share specific feedback like this. And I think when we do share it, it's something like you did great, you did good, nice job. And that's not bad, and we shouldn't stop doing that. But I think when we can really make it specific and call out just get get a get a little layer deeper than good job, I think that feedback really is something that the other person can hang on to and carry with them. And it might be the best compliment they ever get in their life and they remember it 20 years later. And so it's worth taking the time. Now you don't have to go around, I mean, you can, but I'm not necessarily suggesting, okay, I got 20 people on my team, I gotta say something about all 20. That would be wonderful, but I think it would also be wonderful and impactful, even if you heard just one thing from a type that you want to share with one coworker. Just making that time, maybe it's your coworker, maybe it's your manager, maybe it's somebody that you lead. Um, and let people notice kind of the specifics that that you see in them and the things that you are grateful for. And, you know, the team wouldn't be the same without the strengths that they bring to the to the team dynamic. So um however your team is wired, how whatever types you have, the dynamics that play out, the Enneagram can remind us that every type ends up bringing something essential, ends up bringing something that's going to make the team better, both the people individually on the team, the team as a unit, um, going to impact how the team can benefit the organization. And so with the Thanksgiving holiday and the spirit of gratitude, um, here's to noticing it, to specifically naming it and calling it out and letting people know not just that they matter, but why they matter. So, with that, uh, if you happen to still be listening, um, I'm grateful for you. I'm grateful for you tuning in to this episode. If you are a returning listener, I am grateful for you continuing to listen. Um, and so I I appreciate you being here week after week, um, or hopefully week after week, if this happens to be your first one. So, with that, we will jump back in and continue our series on the type overviews with type five next week. And uh I hope that as you listen to this, if you're listening to this in real time, um you had a wonderful holiday. If you're listening to this in the summer, I think the message still applies. We don't have to wait for Thanksgiving to let people know what we appreciate about them. So I appreciate you for being here, and I'll see you in the next one.
