Enneagram Main Board Archive F/T for 4Posted by schrips (12.230.143.136) on August 02, 2003 at 21:47:51: In Reply to: Re: My new boss -- what type? posted by Bertram Ostrer (68.55.244.21) on August 01, 2003 at 14:39:10: I'm a 4w5 INTP. Enneagram focuses on drives and motivations, while MBTI focuses more on behaviors and what skills you depend on. I'm driven by my feelings, but I utilize my thoughts. I'll agree that there do tend to be correlations, but I don't think there are any hard and fast rules. > > Anyway, another topic -- isn't it an indisputable fact that there is NO strict correlation between MBTI and Enneagram? There are common matchups (ex. INFP goes with 4s and 9s a lot) but there is nothing that says a 4 could not possibly be an ESXP, for example. (I use "X" because I can't believe there's a 4 who doesn't have a significant feeling component.) > Yes, as far as I know. I've met a few ESFP Fours. More surprisingly, I've met at least one self-proclaimed ISTJ Four. Even if I've met only one, that's enough to disconfirm, for me, the argument that the combination is impossible. > B.O.
