The Five Archetypes
Carey focuses on relationships and systems, transforming dynamics so value, connection, and revenue generation happen naturally, even under stress.
Static personality systems focus on individual traits in isolation—they don’t account for how those traits interact dynamically in real-world relationships or under stress.
That’s where 5A is fundamentally different. 5A is about relationships and systems, not just individual profiles. It maps the ripple effects of behavior in a team or organization, showing how one person’s stress response triggers another’s shutdown or overreaction—and how those dynamics create a feedback loop that compounds conflict and inefficiency.
5A shows you how to shift those dynamics entirely. We teach people to change the way they show up so they foster growth in others, not just adapt to dysfunction.

“Completely [changed] the way I consider people who stress me out or rub me the wrong way or just see the world differently than I do…. [The Five Archetypes] is fascinating—and Davidson is brilliant…. Read the book, mull it over, and prepare to have your mind blown.”
