About X4MIS

We are unique in the global market because all our on-line change management methodology and training collateral is available FREE to the world.

While we will give freely all the X4MIS on-line collateral, to help fund this initiative we anticipate revenue generation:

For organisations which can reasonably afford the expense of affiliated X4MIS Practitioners delivering X4MIS C onsulting
The delivery of X4MIS T raining, classroom, virtual, on-line or in-house
The accreditation of X4MIS Change Practitioners

Established in 2020 it has been in development since the founder created the initial methodology in 2006 while leading a change management practice for a boutique UK management consultancy.

The Methodology Functions

The methodology has evolved most recently through the collaboration of expert resource in preparation for its release in 2021.

The X4MIS Methodology is not a detailed 100 page document, it’s a collection of activities and process (a smorgasbord) you can pick and choose for your requirements.

Help Save the World

Do you have Change Management content to share? The X4MIS® Change Management Methodology was developed over 10 years through the interactions and experience with organisations with real life change requirements. The methodology has transformed multiple times from that original version and continues to grow with input from other change professionals

Before returning to NZ in 2009 he was the People and Change Management Centre of Excellence practice manager for a boutique UK consultancy, delivering change programs to telecoms, government and customer service sector.
Since his return to NZ he has continued to actively engage in the change management community and business transformation programmes.
He believes embedding the required change into your organisation may not be as complex as some people suggest and the essence of change can be as simple as enabling people to “want to do it”.

Openess

We have nothing to hide, the X4MIS Change Management Methodology and supporting tools will be published and available to all. Everything we develop is free to individuals and organisations to use.

Simplicity

Building complexity defeats the purpose of the Change Management Methodology

Thievery

“originality is non-existent, don’t bother concealing your thievery – celebrate it and, always remember it’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take them to” – Jim Jarmusch, film maker.

Training & Certification

In parallel to the development of the methodology we are developing learning competencies for the processes and procedures

All training will be criterion based, there is no pass mark, learning is confirmed by the ability to demonstrate the required competence.

We will not be creating paper manuals, we’re not into cutting down trees, everything is on-line and will be kept up-to-date.
