What Makes Carey's Work so Unique

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.
