To understand my own Enneagram type, I googled 7 and 8’s. I feel like if you swapped out Job’s name and wrote my name I’d feel you were describing me! My RHETI results are 7(23), 8 (23), 3 (20), 4 (16), 1 (15), 5 (15), 6 (9), 9 (8).

Interesting stuff.

I have an extraordinary mind and I know many 8’s that do. To put Enneagram types into boxes that they don’t fit neatly into only goes to show that there is an expansiveness to the mind that is not yet understood. I’m an 8 with a 7 wing and I plan with extraordinary precision. I’m an 8 with almost all of Steve Jobs personality characteristics. However, I’m not a Narcissist and neither was he. My background is Doctorate of Psychology – Art – and Spirituality. The Enneagram is your FIXATION not who you really are. Once you move into the world of your True Self, much of the fixation shifts . Many readers on here seem to misunderstand that the Enneagram is a wisdom tool nothing more.

I logged here only to bring some clarity in here. I’ve never cared about apple products or Steve Jobs because I have always hated the lack of freedom these products have. However I am learning a lot of interresting things these days which motivates me to investigate it from a different perspective.
It is true that I encourage people instead of firing them and that I work with motivations of people. But what you don’t see is the struggle inside with the ego. I am naturaly highly motivated but I have been proceeding to my own goal a lot lately and the stregth it gives me is hard to tame. Only deep meditation helps me to find the peace of mind.
My point is that a clear goal and a vision to achive it changes 7 with 8 wing drasticaly.
If you combine that with the high position he was in, then it creates a highly explosive coctail with the omnipotent taste.
He was no binary type. He was just so focused on the future many years ahead that he could simply justify doing anything today. So he stopped caring in one way. Makes the life easier and simpler.
He couldn’t be 8. They plan the future differently. With less thoughts in it. I know it because my wife is 8 (with 9 wing though).

Many enterpreneurs can combine software and hardware into a “generic” product. Only the five four wing can combine special twitched software  and beautful twitched software into a product that the world wants to buy.
An exclusive quality found only in 5-4. 
His problems with John Scully (a 3), his stubborness to give in, the motivation to prove his excellence by starting his own company, the quality to do it twice Mackintosh iphone, etc all indicate the same thing.

I don’t think it is a particularly flattering statement, but the man was a genius.

THIRD- Type 8 with a 7 wing – The Maverick.
I seem to have a similar pairing….

After multiple tests showed that I was a  predominant 7 with strong 8, 4, and 5 leanings, I could easily understand how Steve Job’s enneagram could be similarly complicated. Sevens are Renaissance types into everything, thus not easily defined. Don’t put Baby Seven in a box, to paraphrase Dirty Dancing!

Sevens don’t denigrate others, except in direct retribution to an assault.We are not built that way. However, we will not tolerate being bullied, thus the 8 influence.

I am also a 7 w8 and concur with all you said about managing subordinates. I have owned several businesses and managed many people and I know for certain that none of my employees ever feared public retribution or humiliation. Sevens avoid the negative and focus on the positive, and when necessary to point out obvious deficiencies, we focus on our unhappiness with the result, not the person.
