Five Enneagram Personality Types Explained with a Flexispot Item

29 September 2021

Draw a circle and mark nine points that are equally spaced apart in the circumference. Designate each point with a number starting counterclockwise from Nine at the top until it ends with One beside the point labeled as Nine. Draw the inner lines of the Enneagram starting with Three, Six, and Nine forming an equilateral triangle. Continue connecting One with Four, Four with Two, Two with Eight, Eight with Five, Five with Seven, and Seven with One. You have drawn the Enneagram structure. 

Each of the points in your gram represents the Enneagram nine personality types and how they are connected to each other through the inner lines. The nine points categorize people based on their personality, with a person possibly even relating to more than one type. Still, one type stands out among the rest and is called the person's Basic Personality Type. These are any of the following: The Reformer, The Helper, The Achiever, The Individualist, The Investigator, The Loyalist, The Enthusiast, The Challenger, and The Peacemaker. 

We wanted to have a little fun and describe five of these personality types with FlexiSpot items. 

Height Adjustable Whiteboard Standing Desk

The Investigator

This standing desk can capture one’s ideas at any time. Its main feature is a flip tabletop that can also function as a dry-erase board. The whiteboard desktop is spacious with 48” x 24” dimensions. It’s 0.7 thick and is made of PET high-gloss film which makes the surface smooth and durable. It’s easy to write down notes with a dry-erase marker and to wipe it away with a dry fabric or eraser. 

The desk can be flipped and angled at five positions: 0°, 60°, 70°, 80°, and 90°. The desired angle can be locked as one eases in the activity for the day, whether it be writing, reading, or drawing. It also has four easy-rolling caster wheels that can be moved around the room of any floor surface and can be locked into place once settled for the day. 

We think this is perfect for an Enneagram Type Five because The Investigator is the Intense, cerebral type. They are perceptive, innovative, secretive, and isolated. Insightful and curious, they probably always have ideas popping into their heads that they want to jot down so they could develop it eventually. Innovative and inventive, the Enneagram Type Five will surely be able to explore complex ideas with the FlexiSpot Height Adjustable Whiteboard Standing Desk. 

Metal Storage Cabinet 001

Metal Storage Cabinet 001

The Loyalist

FlexiSpot has a large storage offer in its catalog. This metal storage cabinet 001 has five shelves with each one having the capacity to hold 130 pounds, amounting to a total of 650 pounds. Because it can carry heavy items, it’s suitable for the storage of office documents and home garage supplies or other large and heavy items for long-term use. Four of the five shelves are adjustable and could cater to individual and group needs. It can also be mounted to the wall because it has built-in pre-holes. It has two wing doors with a 180°opening angle that was designed to make opening and closing it easy. 

This storage cabinet is so versatile that aside from office files, it can also be used for building maintenance and store cleaning supplies such as brooms, mops, vacuum cleaners, etc. The handle locks itself for safety and security. If being used at home, the round door lock gives additional security for kids and pets. 

It’s perfect for the Enneagram Type Six who is the committed and security-oriented type. They are engaging, responsible, anxious, and suspicious. You would want to work with a Type Six because they are hardworking and trustworthy. This storage cabinet would probably be filled with materials that Type Six uses in order to be efficient and reliable. When you’re with a type 6, you would love that at their best, they are stable and self-reliant. Pushing for what they want and also cheering for others are their ultimate strengths. 

Under-Desk Folding Treadmill Walking Pad WP01

The Enthusiast

This lands as one of FlexiSpots pricier items but is definitely worth the investment at $499.99. Why the hefty price tag? It can actually help save $3,600 a year because there won’t be a need to sign-up for a gym membership. Exercising in private is a luxury because time can be maximized. It has a powerful LED display that shows time, speed, mileage, steps, and calories burned. It has a safety protection function with ultrasonic sensors in real-time. This safety protection is active in any mode, fixed speed, or standby mode. 

Its buttons include Acceleration, Deceleration, Start/Stop, and mode switch. The belt is divided into three areas: Speed-up area, constant speed area, and slow-down area. This unit is also thin, light, and portable. It is just 6.7 inches thick and can be folded. It’s also very portable with preinstalled wheels that you will be able to move the treadmill around the room. The runway size is 47.2” x 18” and has a large weight capacity of 180 lbs.

What could be a better FlexiSpot item for The Enthusiast than thus? This Enneagram Type Seven is the busy, variety-seeking type. They are spontaneous, versatile, acquisitive, and scattered. They have very playful and high-spirited energy that an office desk job might bore them with, so this treadmill would be perfect to switch things up and make the sedentary task fun and active one. 

Magnetic Dry Erase Board 36 x 24 Inch

The Challenger

The Magnetic Dry Erase Board of FlexiSpot has excellent writing and dry erase performance. Its exact size is at 35.8” x 24” which is spacious to write anything one has to be reminded of. It can be mounted into the wall in portrait or landscape, whatever suits one’s fancy. It’s lined with an anti-scratch silver aluminum frame that never turns black and round nylon corners that never get broken. It also comes with a detachable silver aluminum marker tray. 

This is what we will give The Challenger or The Enneagram Type Eight who is powerful and dominating. They are self-confident, decisive, willful, and confrontational. Because they are confident and assertive, they take control of their lives and their environment which can come of as intimidating for other people. This can help though in the workplace for more decisive leadership. This Magnetic Dry Erase board can be used to write down and remind others of rules, a to-do list for the day, etc. 

Gaming Chair GC01

Gaming Chair GC01

The Peacemaker 

The FlexiSpot GC01 has an ultra-wide design and a high seat back at 32.7 inches. One’s ideal posture can be maintained with this chair. Its head pillow is good support for the head and protection for the cervical spine. Plus, the waist cushion is movable and can be twisted to its best angle. For comfort, the backrest can be adjusted between 90 and 135 degrees and the chair’s footrest can be extended. And with the feet off the floor, the chair can still be moved around because of its noiseless pulley. Lastly, this chair is stylish with its leather-clad seat cushion and padded armrests. 

We thought it’ll be perfect for the Peacemaker, the Enneagram Type Nine who is easygoing and self-effacing. They are receptive, reassuring, agreeable, and complacent. They usually go along with others to avoid conflict and it is also because they are just the type to be accepting and trusting. This type would most likely just chill on the GC01 Gaming Chair as everyone stresses out about the smallest of problems.
