If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you’re ready, maybe you should hire Humans In The Machine.
Because complacency is a precarious business. Companies with an innovation culture are twice as likely to experience double-digit growth, meaning a shared readiness to choose enthusiasm.
The HITMXE® method was created from an evaluation of business change and complexity globally, inspiration from original thinkers and decades working with businesses of all shapes and sizes.
It’s not about giving you all the answers, it’s about helping you ask the right questions.
Pain gets in the way. We can’t always start with a visionary strategy, without first treating the presenting problem. Our analysis revealed ten key sources of pain. We call these complexity triggers.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
The challenges we’ll confront and reasons for enthusiasm.
Behaviour change often evokes painful memories of grinding towards seemingly unattainable goals. These can distort perception toward pessimism and fatalism, when the reality isn’t that way. We need to look in more of the right places.
A benefit of the HITMXE™ 4R method is that no matter what kind of work we undertake and at what phase, there’s guidance on what happens next that’s flexible to all capabilities and capacities.
A future-fit business possesses five key attributes; Openness, Realism, Resilience, Divergence and Coherence. Possessing these attributes releases future potential through cultures of enthusiasm.
-
Helps teams take action through diagnosis of a presenting problem causing growing pain.
Outcome: Reveals how closely business words match business actions.
Like our bodies, organisations of all shapes and sizes possess problems and impairments where causes are all too often hidden by a conflation of symptoms: hearing, mobility, coordination, core strength, all issues that get in the way of growth. We start with a “Reveal to Release” diagnosis session to determine which of the 10 key sources of pain are getting in your way.
-
Creates team headspace through targeted pain relief having diagnosed the presenting problem.
Outcome: Releases operational capacity to adapt and recover from setbacks.
Targeted relief and management of diagnosed pain points. Typically delivered as Problem-Based Assignments against aligned outcomes. The goal is tactical tweaks that create space - mental, physical and temporal - utilising our expertise and playbook of solutions. Your organisation will have less pain and be more ready, able and motivated to pursue its full potential.
-
Invigorates teams to go beyond problems, to ideate and formulate new positive practices.
Outcome: Retrains to consistently generate and harness creative thinking.
Your organisation is ready, able and motivated to pursue its full growth potential through strategic design. We have a target state in mind that every type of organisation can aim for to thrive in an global integrated network economy. Growth strategies that create a new consensus between collaboration and independence. Underpinned by a clear Go-To-Market strategy, roadmap and effective adaptation to emerging technologies.
-
Enthuses teams to own and sustain growth by embracing the ever-changing environment.
Outcome: Reinspires change to be responsive to market evolution.
We want to be able to tell meaningful, inspirational stories. That means instituting accountability for change outcomes at each stage and reviewing accomplishments (or failures) against today’s norms, to create dynamic positive reinforcement strategies. There’s craft to how we work with feedback beyond the functional, because humans respond to stories not systems.
Desired outcomes as design principles
Cultural icons show us better than anyone how to be more human, choosing enthusiasm to change behaviour.
To look into the future, sometimes we need to look back at the past. Look at Da Vinci, Warhol, The Beatles, Mead, Fonda, Iyengar, Bowie, Yayoi, and Beyonce - they changed the world we live in.

We’re designed for Artificial Intelligence
Adoption of AI is advancing, exponentially faster than any recent technology, positioning it as the next great revolution, but what will that revolution entail? HITMXE develops the fluid skills needed to thrive alongside Artificial Intelligence.
