For Engineering Leaders Tired of Losing Their Best Talent
Predict team conflicts 3-6 months in advance. Prevent developer departures using the same psychometrics trusted in aerospace and high-risk sectors. Make your silent strategists' voices heard.
Your best Senior Developer just resigned. The conversation was polite: 'Found a new opportunity.'
But you both know it's not the whole story. They stopped engaging in architecture discussions 2 months ago. Retrospectives were silent.
You missed the warning signs.
Now you face recruitment costs, 6 months of onboarding, and a drop in team morale that took everyone by surprise.

Synergy Radar – Discover which personalities clash under pressure
How HEXACO Team Analysis Works
Forget 'team building theatre' and Myers-Briggs tests. We use HEXACO – advanced psychometrics that reveal real friction points before they destroy team cohesion.
Personality Assessment (15 min per person)
Your team completes a scientifically validated survey measuring 6 key dimensions of behavior under pressure.
Best predictor of toxic behaviors. Low H + High Intelligence creates the 'Toxic Genius' pattern.
Resilience to stress and criticism. High E under tight deadlines signals burnout risk.
Need for collaboration vs. Deep Work. Critical for remote team design.
Flexibility vs. Stubbornness. Low A and H leads to 'wars' during code reviews.
Need for structure vs. accepting chaos. High C everywhere causes decision paralysis.
Innovation vs. proven methods. Ignoring High O is why senior architects leave.
Why HEXACO? MBTI (1943) lacks scientific validity and doesn't predict behavior. HEXACO is the standard in aerospace, defense, and fintech.
AI-Powered Synergy mapping
Our algorithm doesn't stop at individual results. We map interactions under stress – where friction actually starts.
Tomek (Low H, Low A, High C) + Ania (High O, High E, Low C)
87% chance of conflict during code review under pressure
Tomek requires perfection; Ania proposes innovation. Under deadline pressure, this relationship turns into silent resentment.
- ●Who will clash during architectural decisions.
- ●Who is overcompensating for group dysfunction (burnout risk).
- ●Which technical leaders are disengaging (turnover risk).
Actionable Recommendations
No generic 'improve communication.' You get a specific action plan based on your team's unique topology.
🚫 Don't Pair: Tomek and Ania for code reviews.
Instead: Have Piotr (High A, Mid O) review Ania's code. Direct Tomek to architectural verification where precision matters most.
🎯 Save Mark's Potential: Before he resigns.
How: Ask for his opinion last during Dailies (gives thinkers time). Schedule deep-dive 1-on-1s. Document decisions in ADRs.
⚖️ Balance the Team: You have 4 High C and 0 Mid C.
Effect: Team debates every edge-case instead of shipping. In next hire, look for 'Mid C / High O' profile.

Features That Solve Real Problems
Tools built for engineering leaders who want to predict, not react.
Conflict Prediction
Detect friction in code reviews and architectural debates before it affects velocity.
- Costly departures
- 30-40% velocity drops
"I used to guess why seniors left. Now I have a radar that shows friction 3 months early."— Engineering Director, Fintech
Turnover Early Warning
Identify 'mentally absent' team members long before they submit their resignation.
- Strategic thinker withdrawal
- Perfectionist burnout
"We saved our lead architect after the radar signaled withdrawal. MBTI never caught that."— VP of Engineering
Amplify Silent Leaders
Ensure introverted experts (High O + Low X) aren't drowned out by louder voices.
- Critical insights are heard
- Architects feel valued
"Our best ideas were coming from people who didn't speak up. LU Teams changed that."— CTO, SaaS
Remote Synergy Optimization
Remote work sharpens conflict. Design communication rituals around personalities.
- Who needs syncs
- Who works better asynch
"Designing our remote rituals around HEXACO reduced our meeting fatigue by 50%."— Team Lead
Proven effective in IT as well as Aerospace
The Case of the Silent Lead Architect
!Hidden Friction
A key team member was withdrawing from architectural discussions, causing delays.
?HEXACO Signal
Analysis showed a High Openness but Low Extraversion profile being drowned out by High Extraversion voices.
✓Final Result
- Retention of lead architect
- 30% faster design reviews
- Psychological safety increase
The Intervention
- •Shifted reviews to asynchronous first
- •Modified meeting rituals
- •Direct feedback training
The only tool that gives me a clear radar for team friction before it explodes.
VP of Engineering
LU Teams changed how we think about hiring and team structure. It's engineering for people.
CTO, Fintech
A must-have for any remote engineering leader.

Why Switch from MBTI to HEXACO?
MBTI is entertainment. HEXACO is the tool used in aerospace, fintech, and defense for high-stakes decisions.
The MBTI Problem
MBTI dates back to 1943 and lacks peer-reviewed validity. It doesn't predict real-world behavior under pressure.
- Low test-retest reliability
- No measure of toxic behaviors
- Zero conflict prediction
- HR theatre, not engineering data
Manager Value: 'You're an INTJ'
Actionable steps? None.
| Criteria | MBTI | HEXACO |
|---|---|---|
| Scientific Validity | Low (no reliability) | High (peer-reviewed) |
| Measures Toxicity? | No | Yes (Honesty-Humility) |
| Predicts Conflict? | No | Yes (specific probability) |
| Application | Entertainment / HR | Aerospace, Fintech, Military |
| Manager Value | 'You're an INTJ' | 'Don't pair X and Y this sprint' |
