Leverage MCode Insights for Leadership
Stop Guessing at People Decisions
Your team’s success isn’t random. It’s predictable—when you understand what actually drives each person.
You’ve Been Here Before
You’re making million-dollar people decisions based on gut feel and hope. And when things go wrong, you blame yourself for not seeing it coming. You weren’t missing red flags. You were missing the framework.
Frustrated Expectations
The new hire who aced the interview but can’t seem to deliver.
It’s frustrating when things looked great on paper but don’t deliver the expected results.
Unexpected Conflicts
The two talented people who should collaborate but constantly clash.
We think the conflict is personal, but it’s often a function of roles and motivation.
Shocking Departures
The star performer who suddenly quits because they “didn’t feel valued.”
Promotions and even raises won’t always deliver the impact we expect because people are wired differently.
The Problem
Isn’t Personality or Skills.
It’s Motivation.
A person can be using their strengths in a role that matches their personality—and still feel uninspired, unmotivated, and unfulfilled.
What energizes someone at work isn’t about who they are or what they’re good at.
Stop guessing and start
leading with confidence
Predict who’ll succeed in a role before you hire them. Learn and understand how teams will work together, given their motivational dynamics.
Every person has a unique
“motivational pattern”
Manage each person in a way that actually motivates them. Learn to shape assignments to bring the most out of each employee.
Resolve conflicts before they
happen by predicting them
Build teams where differences create strength instead of friction. The conflicts aren’t personal and more importantly, they’re predictable.

Frequently Asked
More About Aligned Teams
Got a question? We’ve got you covered! Check out the resources below and be sure to let us know if we can answer anything else.
What if my team hasn’t taken MCode yet?
Start by having your team complete the MCode assessment at motivationcode.com. It takes 30 minutes per person and gives them valuable self-insight. Once you have their results (dimensions and top motivations), you can input that data into Aligned Teams for analysis.
Is there a team member limit?
Not really. For intelligent analysis, we often limit team sizes to 20. But that won’t stop you to swap in different dimensions and motivations and run the analysis again (if you happen to have 22 on a team). Your subscription is based on the number of leaders (managers with direct reports), not team size.
Is MCode just another personality test?
No. Personality tests tell you who someone is. Strengths assessments tell you what they’re good at. MCode reveals what motivates them to act—which is what actually predicts performance, engagement, and fit. A person can be using their strengths and still feel unfulfilled if their core motivations aren’t engaged.
What if I don’t know psychology?
While the MCode assessment leverages positive psychology, you don’t need to master any of it. Everything is translated into plain English with specific predictions or actions to take. No jargon, no theory dumps, just practical guidance for your actual management challenges.
