Awareness is the first step to empathy. Empathy is what stops conflict costing you a resignation.
By the time conflict shows up in an exit interview or a formal complaint, it's already cost you performance, time, and often the person involved. Marlee gives every teammate the insight to deeply understand each other, and gives leaders predictive signals, during hiring, team formation, and day-to-day work, on where friction is likely and how to turn those differences into strength.

The Conflict Nobody Saw Coming
Most workplace conflict isn't sudden. It's visible in the data long before it's visible in a resignation letter.
Engagement surveys and exit interviews tell you what already went wrong. By then, the cost is already paid: in performance, in time, and often in a person who's already decided to leave. The earlier signal is almost always a working-style mismatch nobody had the data, or the empathy, to see.
"Marlee has been crucial for our teams. It gives us direction for composition, hiring, and conflict resolutions. There are so many 'aha' moments."
Reshmi Buthello, VP of People & Culture
WHERE MARLEE EXCELS
This isn't personality typing. It's a predictive model built from your own top performers.
Evidence-Based Motivation Science
25+ years of research behind how Marlee identifies working-style friction points.
Ask Marlee For Precise Friction Points
See where friction is likely based on your own team's real motivational data, not generic conflict-style typing.
Understanding, Not Just a Diagnosis
Specific, evidence-based tips for navigating identified friction, so teammates can bring out the best in each other instead of just avoiding each other.
BUILT AROUND REAL PEOPLE
The 'difficult' teammate is usually just a misunderstood working style.
Awareness is the first stage of empathy. Marlee gives every teammate that awareness, before friction turns into a formal complaint or a resignation.
"We caught a clash between two strong performers before it became a formal HR issue."
"Marlee gave both people language and support for what was actually happening, instead of just tension."
"It wasn't personal. It was two completely different working styles pointed at the same deadline."

FROM TEAMS USING MARLEE
Real teams, conflict caught before it cost them someone.
“Marlee has been instrumental in rapidly helping us unpack team conflict when it is happening but importantly predicting it in team formation. We now go in with our leadership eyes wide open and every team member gets to see the same data we do - and is able to intentionally bring out the best in each vs the worst. ”
Anne Luu
VP Asia, Investible
“My co-founder and I would have conversations and come away with completely different viewpoints of what was discussed, it was extremely frustrating for both of us. Marlee provided us with valuable insights into our behavior, communication styles and blind spots, allowing us to understand each other much better- it had a direct and significant impact on us and our business. I highly recommend it for all co-founders as a minimum and for your broader team.”
Renee Welsh
Co-Founder and CEO, Booking Boss
“Discussions on receiving praise and feedback was a really important one for us, and we've already seen a big impact on the team.”
Rebecca Sharpe
Head of Corporate Innovation and Accelerators, Ravel Innovation
