HITMˣE®

A Method That Embodies Enthusiasm

Our 4R method turns the Enthusiasm Wave™ into direction, action and growth. A container for change — light, adaptive, and human. AI will increasingly handle procedure; humans must learn the cunning craft of embracing complexity and guiding technology.

Book cover titled 'The Fourth Way of Futurism' with a dark blue background and minimalist design, including a circular outline and a small logo.

Drawn from an evaluation of global business transformation, to the phenomenon of complexification, inspiration from cunning, courageous ideas and decades working with businesses of all shapes and sizes.

Where the attention economy pulls us off‑centre, HITMXE® restores individual agency.

  • Equating complex systems to human systems makes them easier to relate to. We treat growing pain as triggers and symptoms of complexity overwhelm.

    We also recognise that everyone carries a victim story: a complex pattern of painful experiences that quietly shapes self‑sabotage. Naming it helps us recognise when we’re being prevented from doing the right things.

    Lastly there’s a need to ask, what does failure of this assignment look like? To assess what is at stake.

    These insights form the foundation of every customised program.

    Think of it as the path of right resistance.

  • We all know the slang term. A big part of our idea came from athletics and elite sports. In fact, we took input from one of Singapore’s most respected weightlifting voices and former world-record holder Iriving Henson to form the 4R method.

    We promise to meet anyone feeling between worlds in the “hit me” moment of truth. A statement of intent and a shared openness to take risks, invest energy, speak candidly and face consequences.

    “X” shows humans and machines moving experiences in harmony, sharing the same DNA.

We challenge you, forget the fads, let's get future-fit!

We begin where it hurts.

The weakest links always break the chain.

That’s where real change happens.

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Pain gets in the way. 

It clouds our judgement, boosts stress levels and forces us into the quickest of fixes.

We can’t always start with a visionary strategy, without first treating the presenting problem. Our analysis revealed ten key sources of pain. We address them quickly and systematically.

What happens next?

Because Openness is a precondition of our work, the HITMXE® method is fully adaptable. Whatever the work and wherever we begin, the method provides clear next steps that remain modular, flexible and responsive to all capacities.

Based on our analysis of global businesses that successfully transform, being future‑fit means strengthening four more attributes: Realism, Resilience, Divergence and Coherence. Organisations that have these attributes build cultures of enthusiasm — and consistently outperform peers over time.

  • 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.

A.I.

AI marks the shift from an industrial culture of diligence to a resourceful culture of ingenuity, where people use intelligent tools to think with more cunning and act bigger.

By partnering with AI rather than remaining bound to outdated reward systems, individuals expand their capacity, strengthen judgment, embrace creativity and reclaim their agency.

Coherence

Pioneers, artists, athletes, philosophers and psychologists had the courage to shape better worlds by being more human. They grasped the power of coherence and enthusiasm to change hearts and minds.

To imagine the future, we reflect on the past. Look at Da Vinci, Warhol, The Beatles, Mead, Fonda, Iyengar, Bowie, Yayoi, and Beyonce - they changed the world we live in.

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.

In a complexified world, we help people find their courage and make change last.

Let’s work together.
