For engineering leaders
Your team knows the answers. The room doesn't always hear them.
SignalCheck Teams is a communication performance diagnostic, not training. It measures what happens to an engineer's English under pressure: a stakeholder pushes back on the design, a question lands unprepared in a review, a decision starts to move the wrong way.
Each person completes one thirty minute diagnostic and receives a scored report. The team receives one signal map.

Illustrative sample. Every SignalCheck is scored on the
same five dimensions, on the same 100 point scale, and every report is reviewed by a
SignalCheck expert.

Why test scores miss it
The score measured the language. It never measured the moment.
TOEIC and IELTS measure English in a quiet room. An engineer on your team can hold a strong test score and still go quiet when a stakeholder challenges the plan.
The second language cost
Under pressure, that load breaks first
Working in a second language uses extra mental capacity, and under pressure that load breaks first. A native speaker under the same pressure does not pay this cost. General communication training works on the message. SignalCheck measures performance under the load itself.
The centrepiece
One map of the group, not ten separate problems
The signal map. What you receive.
Every person is measured on the same five dimensions, so the individual reports combine into one map of the group. This sample shows a team of ten senior engineers. Each small dot is one person. The large marker is the group average, coloured by its zone.

Spread, lowest to highest
This group holds in three dimensions and drops in the same two under pressure. One shared gap, not ten separate problems, so development targets only the gap.

How it runs for a team
Identical pressure, expert review, no scheduling burden
1
Identical conditions per person
Every person meets the same situations in English: a technical decision challenged, a fast cross-timezone call, a question they did not prepare. Identical conditions mean results compare cleanly across the group.
2
Thirty minutes per person
Scheduled around their work rather than around ours. No preparation, nothing to revise, and no difference between interviewers.
3
Every diagnosis expert reviewed
The diagnosis comes from the methodology and is reviewed by a SignalCheck expert. For a team of around twenty two people that is roughly five leadership conversations.
Data and confidentiality
Each person owns their score. You receive the map.
Procurement and works councils ask this first, and correctly. The answer is the same in every engagement.
01
Each person owns their score
The report belongs to the person who was assessed. They receive it in full.
02
You receive the map, not the ranking
The leader receives the team pattern map. It shows where the patterns sit across the group.
03
No individual scores go to a manager
Not on request, not in the debrief, not ever. That is what makes an engineer agree to be measured.
04
Everyone is told before they join
Every participant knows what is collected and who sees it before the session starts.

"If I tell them, they probably will listen, but, you know, they will forget."
Engineering lead, cross-regional engineering group
Built with a cross-regional engineering group in Taiwan and senior professionals at global technology companies.
The first step is one team, not a company programme
Run the diagnostic, read the map, and decide with the data in front of you. Twenty minutes on a call is enough to choose the first team.
