Gong Xi Fa Cai! Its the year of the Tiger

Its coming up to the Chinese New Year (14th Feb) and as preparations are taking place all over the world we wanted to wish all of you- our XL Family the very best.

 

 

The XL Nation Values Survey

It’s coming this month! Mid-February we are launching an XL Nation Values survey based on Richard Barett’s renowned model of Cultural Transformation and Seven Levels of Community Consciousness. It is sponsored and managed by Helen Urwin, one of our founding members from the UK, who works closely with Richard Barrett.

WHAT to expect?
The survey will map the personal values of XL Nation Members and Citizens and our perception of the current and desired culture values of our community.

The same process has been done to transform corporations, NGOs, government institutions; communities as well as nations, most notably in the US after President Obama resumed his office. The US Values study is the first of a series to be conducted throughout Obama’s office term in order to monitor the values that are common to the nation. The Other studies at nation level were conducted in Argentina, Bhutan, Denmark, Latvia and Iceland.

WHY are we doing it?
This process is of great value in planning for our future as XL Nation. It has been found invaluable in mapping the values of communities that share a common heritage or purpose – which for us, XL Nation, is the World Wide Wealth.

In the case of the US Nation Value Study, Richard Barrett commented that “the data will be invaluable for informing government, public agencies and corporations about what is most important to Americans…and bring efforts to alignment.” The study reveals those values that unite the nation in shared understanding, direction and purpose, while providing clarity to the challenges ahead.

The survey will allow us to well understand our individual and collective values and organize ourselves to accomplish our World Wide Wealth Vision 2020 in a way that best expresses these values.

WHO is involved?
Everyone. All XL Nation Founding Members and Citizens are invited and encouraged to participate.

WHEN will it happen and WHERE?
The survey will be done in couple of stages with the individual surveys opening on 15 February and closing on 15 March 2010.
Afterwards we will collate the inputs and Helen’s team will process the results, which will be presented back to you at the XL Nation Convention in April. Even if you are not there in person you can still watch it through the U-Stream worldwide in real time or later view the recording of the live event.

HOW will the results be used?
The results will be used by the XL Nation Leadership team and Circle leaders to decide how we want to structure and manage the XL Nation going forward to create flow and be on purpose, especially serve as a guide for the following 6 months when plan to put these structures in place.

NEXT STEPS
Once launched – participate in the survey AND ensure all other XL Nation Citizens you know participate as well! This is your chance to shape the XL Nation. Make your voice and values count.

Stay tuned for more details on where and how you can participate in the survey – they will be coming shortly.

 

 

 

Welcoming New Members to our World!

Last week we we had 3 citizens join XL Nation at the Wealth Dynamics Workshop on the Gold Coast and 14 people apply for XL Nation citizenship at the WDW on the Gold Coast. That makes a total of 17 people over the weekend.

 

This Weeks XL In Touch is a special Update to bring Members up to date with what has been happening with the XL Nation team over the past few weeks
 

 

Happy New Year XL Citizens

– please let me take this opportunity to wish you and all of your family a very happy, healthy and abundant 2010.

I felt it was timely to send an update on what the XL Nation central operational team (who are volunteering their time to commit to XL Nations growth) have been focused on over the past few months since the October Convention and what we remain focused at over the next 3 months through to National Day in Bali on 31st March 2010.

We meet every Monday on a conference call to discuss the progress and plans for the week and we communicate regularly with each other using some global software which helps us to project plan.

Some really great news to start the New Year off is that we had 20 new citizens join XL Nation in one day, from one event in Australia. They had all attended the One life programme in Hunter Valley and have joined the one life circle inspired about making a difference to our vision of World Wide Wealth. That first new intake last week has been the largest number of new Citizens joining XL Nation since we started last March, so it augurs well for a great 2010 and a large number of people joining us with our mission.

Below you will see the objectives we are focused at, who are the owner of the specific accountability’s, what the milestone dates are and an update based on this morning’s call with the team.

Do send me any questions and also we are always looking for additional resource to support us with the work centrally. If you have between 2-8 hours a month you would be willing to contribute, let me know and we can discuss where you would like to add the most value.

Have a great week ahead! Michelle

Ps we will be letting you know the schedule of global events very soon as we will re commence the power ups, forum meetings and senate meetings… watch the events page in XLW for more info…

 

 

Vacancy

The fabulous Jo Galati who has been doing a wonderful job keeping everything organized and structured in the admin dept has now, got so many commitments she needs to step back from the admin role and just focus on the communications side. So, this leaves an opportunity open for someone (this is the only paid role in XL Nation just now, kindly sponsored by XL FM Helen Urwin from the UK) for an admin assistant – 8 hours per week to start, with the potential to build to more during 2010. This role would suit a very organized and structured person, ideally a trader/accumulator type profile. If you are interested, please message me direct Michelle.clarke@xlnation.org with a CV and details of your experience for more information.
 

 

Six Month Objectives

The objectives for the six months to XL National Day, 31st March 2010 are:

1. Build a cash positive, global, non-profit operation with a steady stream of new citizens joining and a number of simple programs in place to grow towards XL2020.

2. The 2009 transition from XLRF to XLN behind us and all existing XL members aware of the change, how to participate and having clear access to the processes to add value into membership and transfer out of membership.

3. A transition from the current board and team focused on setting up XL Nation to a board and team focused at building XL Nation to become a leading organisation within the global social enterprise community.

4. Concrete steps in establishing and promoting the three pillars of XL Nation that make us unique within the global community – namely: Changemaker Circles connecting resources globally; a community of Extraordinary Lives leading by example; and an entrepreneur democracy crafting World Wide Wealth – A nation without borders, united by purpose.

 
 

 

Top 10 Priorities

Progress Update below each priority

Priority #1: Complete Incorporation/Bank Account and communicate to Members
Owner: Charles Buffett/Jo Galati
Milestones:
Incorporation – 13.3.10
Bank Account – 31.3.10
Communicatiom – weekly update

Update: This has taken much longer than we originally anticipated and I know members have been very curious to know the latest info. The XL Nation directors have now completed their due diligence and have now all agreed to be directors for XL Nation. The incorporation documents are traversing the globe (literally) from country to country for the 3 directors to sign and will then be sent to Singapore to be finally forwarded to the new company secretary based in Hong Kong – which is the country members voted they wanted XLN to be incorporated in. We believe the process of signing and posting could take 3 weeks and then we may have to wait an additional 6 weeks for the application to be totally processed in Hong Kong.

Until XLN is incorporated we cant open a bank account – we are currently using a paypal account and use this for all member payments to XLN and supplier payments from XLN.

Priority #2: Budget in place/Accounting System
Owner: Michelle Clarke
Milestone:
Budget and P&L – 7.12.09
First view Accounts and cash flow – 30.11.09 - weekly

Update: A budget and P&L has been put in place. This allows for the growth of XLN to 500 new Citizens in 2010. The estimate for January was 10 new Citizens, this has already been doubled and we have 2 weeks left in Jan. XLN basic running costs are currently less than SGD$2150 per month (covers admin, email and database management, weekly members updates, use of u stream technology, secretary in HK and paypal charges) We need to aim for a min of 10 new members to cover basic costs. Once we hit 20 new members per month + we can look to implement the systems we have been talking about all year.

We are cash flow positive and up to date with payments due.

Ilyas Patel accountants in the UK are currently setting up the basic accounting and bookkeeping service for XLN.

Priority #3: XLRF/XLN Agreement/communication
Owner: Roger Hamilton/Jo Galati
Milestone:
Agreement signed by Directors 13.3.10
Communication update – specific comms to FM’s and Citizens

Update: This agreement has been written and ‘agreed’ by XLRF and the XLN Directors but can only be signed and put in place once XLN is incorporated. A copy of the agreement will be made available on XLW in the coming weeks

Priority #4: Confirm Team and Monthly Routine
Owner: Michelle Clarke
Milestone: Mid Dec

Update: we currently have a team made up of 12 volunteers and one paid admin assistant. Each volunteering between 2 and 10 hours a month.

We currently require to join the team:
Admin assistant (paid role)
A global Board of Advisors to XL Nation
Head of Finance
Head of Systems
Chair of the Senate
Chair of the Forum

If you are interested in any of these opportunities to contribute and make a real difference to XLN, please contact me.

Priority #5: Take advantage of flow to create momentum and new leaders
Owner: Rustica Lamb
Milestone: Events throughout 2010 – 30/31st Jan in Australia

Update: the event that was held in Australia this week, which Roger was attending, culminated in 20 new members once Roger explained the vision of XL Nation. Roger has volunteered that he will talk about XL Nation at every event he runs wherever he is in the world to support the local circles.

Topher Morrisson has also offered to do the same, as has Mike Handcock.

If you would like to include XL Nation information in your speaking engagements or training events, please contact Rustica lamb for more information on how to do this. rustica@propertyeducationcentre.co.nz

Priority #6: Values Questionnaire
Owner: Bea Benkova
Milestone; Start communications Feb

Update: Bea has been researching a tool that has been very kindly offered to us gratis by XL FM and consultant Helen Urwin. This questionnaire will help us to understand much more about the culture that our members want to create in XLN and what structures will be required to do this. Bea will be sending an update on next week’s members update.

Priority #7: Raise Funds/Sponsorship
Owner: Martin Jimmink
Milestone:
First round funding basic monthly needs – 24.12.09

Update: As we are now cash flow positive, this has become less of an immediate priority. We had a small number of extremely generous sponsors who have supported us financially through set up and I would like to particularly thank Roger who has personally paid for the majority of activity in 2009 to date.

Rustica is investigating the possibility of funding for XL National Day in Bali in March and if anyone has any information that can support her, please let her know. rustica@propertyeducationcentre.co.nz

Priority #8: Support Leaders with new tools – eg) active8’s
Owner: Roger Hamilton
Milestone: Beg Feb for first set of tools and communications

Update: Roger is recording much of the content in his upcoming programmes at the end of January which he will edit for the Circle Leaders to use at their circle meetings. These recordings will help provide learning content and a way to structure your meetings to help deliver even more value. There will be a series available by mid 2010. The first recording will be available in XLW mid Feb.

Priority #9: Review Findings from Values Q for Comms and implementation
Owner: Bea Benkova
Milestone: March

Update: findings will be presented at XL National day for discussion and input from members

Priority #10: Global Resources – Effective PIXL’s system
Owner: Katrina McGilchrist
Milestone: Late Feb

Update: Katrina will be working with a systems expert on this project. Her aim is to make the current Pixl’s system clear and easy to understand so that as a circle meets and delivers value it can quickly and easily upload and share its resources globally and all the content can be tagged and easily found.

The system will be presented on National Day.

Merry Christmas, Buone Feste Natalizie, Selamat Hari Natal, Geseënde Kersfees

We’d like to share some of our favourite Christmas quotes with you all, as we move closer to the Christmas Season that we feel reflect not only the spirit of Christmas but of XL Nation all year round! May the coming weeks of the Christmas season be a relaxing time for all our members & their loved ones.

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself…
~Norman Wesley Brooks, “Let Every Day Be Christmas,” 1976

XL Nation Directors Update

XL team, over the last number of weeks, we, Charles Buffet, Katrina McGilchrist and Martin Jimmink, as directors have been meeting weekly to discuss the responsibilities and roles of the directors and the overall model of XL Nation.

This week the directors completed the paperwork to finalize incorporation of XL Nation. We understood that for many members the question being asked often was what is taking so long with incorporation? Surely incorporation doesn’t take this long? and What happened to getting incorporated by the October Bali Convention?

While XL Nation and it’s vision is jointly the responsibility of it’s members, the director’s in addition have corporate responsibilities which needed to be fully understood prior to committing to incorporation.We do and did not take these responsibilities lightly and had to ensure that we completed our due diligence giving it the care it requires to come to 100 % commitment based on clarity of knowledge.

We wanted to make sure that we took the time to get it right from the very beginning so that we could build the strongest foundation for XL Nation possible.

It’s been inspirational to see while we have been working on incorporation many of you have been stepping up to lead or support circles in your area or area of interest and helping new citizens to join. The feedback on line if you haven’t had an opportunity to see it is great. It shows the beginning of what collectively we can accomplish through XL Nation on a world wide scale.

Today as you read this the directors met again to discuss the major milestones that they needed to work on for the next 6 months

I, we will keep you informed as things progress and thank you for your ongoing support.

Regards,

Martin Jimmink

XL World Tip- XL Circle Treasuers

Over the last few weeks we’ve introduced you to the the circle leader, guardian, scout, guide and reporter. Now we move into the winter energy and introduce you to the circle treasuer.

The circle treasuerer roles include Keeping track of WWW rankings and contributions, any monies collected, anh monies owed, any Circle KPIs, etc and reports to each meeting. Often thought of as the Lord profile and one of the hardest roles a circle seeks to fill - this is one of the most important roles.
As circles choose social enterprises to support the treasuer is critical in measuring the success circles are having as we work towards our 2020 vision.
“We measure what we treasure and we treasure what we measure”

XL Tip of the Week - Introduction to the When Energy of Circles

Last week we introduced you to the Circle Scout. Following on from this, this week we’d love to introduce you to the Circle Reporter! The circle reporter carries with it an earth energy and is all about - yep you guessed it When!

Each circle reports on its monthly learning, which is pertinent to its purpose (Scout). It reports on the opportunities it has to share at a global level, again pertinent to its purpose and its members (Guide). It also reports on the most amazing and inspiring stories of where its members have totally got it right or in some cases totally got it wrong so other people can learn from their experiences and this is where we meet the Reporter.

The key job of the Reporter is to present Stories and promote best practice in their circle - be that generating answers to members issues, celebrating successes and collating where citizens have used learnings from XL and put them into practice and then making sure that these sharing go into the XL Library so that any member from any other circle can share in the learning!
 

 

A farewell to an outstanding Founding Member

It was with much sadness this week that the XL community learnt about the passing of one of our Founding Members. Ms Veronica Ho.

Veronica was an XL Founding Member who had been an integral part of the Leadership team in Asia. From being a founding member in Malaysia her home town she took on a leadership position when she became the XL Country Manager for China.

Veronica was founder of the One Academy Design School in KL. Veronica was also a 2007 XL Extraordinary Lives Award Nominee.

A service is being held to commemorate her life on the 19th of November in KL.
Please hold Veronica and her family in your hearts as she in honoured today.

XL Tip of the Week- Introduction to the Who Energy of Circles

Last week we introduced you to the Why Energies of the circles. This week we’d love to introduce you to the Circle Scout.

For the Scout their flow is “Knowledge”: Transforming information into action. They are the ‘Dynamo’ frequency in the four flow Leaders: The spark. Their focus is supporting the learning of Circle members and more specifically, the application of that learning.

At Circle meetings the scout facilitate a session for the education of Circle members. They turn a pixl into power through inspiration and insight, and they turn that power into a pixl. This is how every Scout links every circle to XL Nation through the flow of knowledge. This is one of the five pixls that grow our social profit: pixl stands for “Profit in XL”.

Outside Circle meetings they are identifying resources which support the learnings that Circle members have identified they want.

XL Tip of the Week- Introduction to the Why Energy of Circles

Each of the leadership roles within a circle caries with it a certain energy. Before we go into the what, who etc I wanted to introduce to you the Why energy roles of the circle.
The Why is our Spirit energy and the reason “why” we come together.
Within a circle the Circle Leader, Circle Guardian and the WWW Ambassador hold the space for the Why energy.

The Why energy are the guardians of the 2020 vision for XL Nation and all its members within the circle. The why energy opens the meeting starting with the WWW Ambassador sharing the 2020 vision and Global WWW stats for the previous months and then moves to the Circle Leader who leads the circle through the Declaration of Interdependence. We then move onto the Guardian who leads us through the meeting. The WWW ambassador and leader also closes the meeting always bringing us back to the why after much sharing, learnings and inspiration is shared.

Within a circle each month the what, who, when, and how will change however it is the Why that always remains the same.

An XL Nation Testimonial to share with you all

Because I believe in the vision of World Wide Wealth. The calibre of people I have met, as part of my XL journey has been exceptionally high. The connections I have made have greatly accelerated the achievement of my professional and personal goals.

XL Tip of the Week

We’ve had some feedback that people are not 100% sure what each of the circle flow leaders role are and what is the “reasoning” behind circles and the roles so over the next few weeks we’ll introduce you to the concept of circles and each flow leader role!

Why do we have circles?
Circles of Trust and Purpose: The power of connecting collectively

Each Circle is a place for XL Members to belong, supporting the principle of C-A-R-E. From Human Race to Human Care.

Connection: Connection is the basis of democracy (the power of all over the power of one). The opposite of connection is separation and separation is the basis to all poverty.

Appreciation: Once we are connected, appreciation is both a human value and a capital value . It is the building block of worth, which in turn is the mountain from which wealth flows. Appreciation is the basis of capitalism (Capital appreciation). The opposite is scarcity: A race for scarce resources – unsustainable economy vs. sustainable ecology.

Rhythm: Rhythm is the heart beat of the greater whole. This rhythm is the basis of any movement from a physical movement to a global movement. The opposite of rhythm is suspension. Life without connection, appreciation and rhythm leads to suspended animation and to redundancy where our life is a lifeless life of not enough.

Effective Giving: Community comes from the French verb communiere which means the collective sharing of gifts. Biologically, energy created and energy transferred adds life to the whole. This is the basis of community. The opposite is not ineffective taking (which at least is unsustainable and so will eventually die). The opposite is sceptic holding, where we stay in the game but without passing the ball. On a football pitch it’s called dribbling. We can choose to dribble through life through sceptic holding – as in a septic tank – or receive and give effectively, adding on either side of the transaction. This is flow.

 

 

Welcome to our new Citizens

Over the last 2 weeks we’ve received 4 new applications for people wanting to become XL Nation Citizens.

We’d like to introduce to you our newest Member who’s application has been accepted and completed. Stuart Powell attended WDA in Bali a couple of weeks ago and signed up to be an XL Member at the Bali Convention. Stuart is from the North in the UK and will be joining the XL North West Circle. Do look out for him in XL World!

Next month do join us at 7am GMT on Thursday 12th November for this months Global Power UP with Joanna Martin.

Jo Martin will share with us How to Make Big Money Speaking From Stage.

An XL Nation Testimonial to share with you all

“XL Nation provides the structure and people to collectively make a difference that many of us are waking up to and wanting to make. I and my company believe in collaboration vs. competition and that everyone can contribute in their own way to making the world an even better place. I am fiercely proud of XL Nation and it’s vision for 2020 and due to integrity of the founder and the growing team, I am convinced XL will realise its vision.”

XL Nation Leaders & Citizens Guides Updated & Uploaded!

The XL Nation Citizens Guide has four simple steps that will take you through XL Nation Citizenship and while its been specifically set up for new XL Nation Citizens we highly recommend all XL Nation members to have a look as it explains XL Nation in a nutshell.

The leaders guide has been developed specifically for Founding Members and Citizens who have stepped up as Leaders to provide them with the tools they need to get started, set up effectively and be successful in their roles.

Both of these guides will be available on our XL Nation Website and XL World

XL World Tip of the Week

I’m confused about where to find circles on XL World!
We’ve had feedback that there seems to be a lot of confusion between finding circles and groups on XL World as you’ll find circles and groups in the same area. Circles and groups do exist in the same area as circles are often born from groups.

If your looking for a verified XL Nation circle the best place to see the list is under the circle tab. From there you will see a list of verified XL Nation circles (which we have moved up the top so its easier to find!)

XL Nation Time!

With so many global events and online, offline and circle meetings we had to find a way to make it easy to list all of these events. XL Nation events such as global power ups, forum meetings ect ect will always be listed in UTC (co-ordinated universal time or gmt as its also know) You’ll find a UTC clock on the front page on XL World & we’ll also provide a link on the events on where you can find your local time. We also encourage all Circle events to list their time as UTC and then provide links for the local time!

November’s Global Power Up

Next month do join us at 7am GMT on Thursday 12th November for this months Global Power UP with Joanna Martin.

Jo Martin will share with us How to Make Big Money Speaking From Stage. While the lessons at this presentation are taught in the context of speaking- they are just as applicable to sales, leadership and one-on-one communications. So no matter what profile you are or what you do in your day to day life come ready for some immediately applicable skills.

An XL Nation Testimonial from Maya Shahani - Winnner of the 2009 XL Extraordinary Lives Award 2009

“Today I received the XL Extraordinary Lives” award 2009. All I can say is that XL made me extraordinary. I joined XL in 2006. Today I don’t even recognise myself. My heartfelt thanks to Roger and all my mentors, Mike, Dave, Paul, Martin made this possible for me. A special thanks to all my friends in XL who have been supporting me throughout and specifically Mike Handcock who believed in me, even before I started believing in myself. I believe XL Nation is going to bring in the Golden Age we have all been waiting for. I will always remain a part o this great Nation”

Maya Shahani

Update on XL Nation Projects and resource requirements

It’s a week since the XL Nation Convention already. Where does time fly by to? You will have seen by now, Martin’s and my, written updates on the convention, also uploaded are the video’s from convention made straight after the day. I said last week I would give more info on the projects, the outstanding ones still not completed and the new ones that have been created as well as letting you know who has stepped up into projects from last week and who has been sponsoring projects.

The convention saw a fundamental shift in the way that the formation, set up and running of XL Nation was viewed. Convention participants went away very clear that XL Nation is a Nation of members, for the members and run by the members, not set up and run by a group of paid employees or a hierarchy of members making decisions in isolation. In fact, as I said last week of one project we discussd, ‘if no one says they can do it, it’s very likely it may not get done’. The official disbanding of the Transformation Team as it was, happened last week, at convention and created the space for more people to get involved on a project basis in the set up, creation and running of our Nation. It removes the ‘them and us’ and leaves only ‘Us’

So today’s update is very practical J

XL Nation, now that it is incorporated as a Not for Profit Organisation (or, as ‘A for Social Profit’ Organisation) is looking for individuals and organisations that want to be able to contribute to its growth and sustainability by either directly donating funds, specifically sponsoring projects in XL Nation or project leading a task to be completed.

Income for XL Nation will of course be generated by Citizenships, as well as funding in the long term and with the right systems and infrastructure for XL Nation and its members we could easily, in the future, support the arrival of 50-100 new members a month. The challenge we have right now, is, in order to build those systems and infrastructure, we need funding available to enable some of the even most basic projects meet their milestones.

At the Convention last week, when we explained the projects, their dependencies and priority for completion, several people stepped up to either project lead or to sponsor the development of a project, which was fantastic!

Perhaps as you support XL Nation, you would also like to sponsor a specific project and have your name/company name attached to that project as the official sponsor, or perhaps you would like to make a specific donation, that XL Nation can apportion to the projects below in order to meet its priorities. Perhaps your company is a service provider and you would like to sponsor a project with your time e.g.) accounting services, website development and hosting, systems development, or you can project manage the completion of one of the projects.

Each project as outlined here has a specific $ value attached to it, a member of the Team that is project managing it and a description of how the money will be used to further the work of XL Nation.

If you would like to fund one of these opportunities or to project lead it, please contact Jo.Galati@xlnation.org Thank you very much in advance!

A Bali Convention Update from Martin Jimmink

Bali Convention

13-10-2009

Vision Villa’s is an amazing place….connecting the Why, What, Who, When and How.. with the journey of life running as a river of 7 years cycles thru the place. My second home…. where the team greets me every time with the words: “welcome home, Martin”

Over the last 3 months I have taken myself thru an amazing journey. In the past 6 years I have been a life member of XL Nation and became a mentor at EBS and Masters… many times I told Roger and other XL members that I was ready to Step Up… without finding the “match”. In July I was asked to become chair person for the Transformation Team and my listening skills were such that I heard XL Nation… so I made it ChairPerson for XL Nation. I had to do my due diligence as there was so much noise on the XL line.. I spoke with people, listened, got confused, wanted to be the sorter outerer, fixer. Thoughts went through my mind around stepping away, what a waste of my time, awesome people in XL. I asked myself the question is Roger a crook… I looked at everything.

My final conclusion has been that, yes mistakes have been made, promises have been broken and people have had to change direction and… that nothing of this occurred intentionally. I belief that I am 100% in my integrity with taking on my role as chairperson for XL Nation believing that most conversations have been had, all broken promises addressed and turned into action towards completion.

With this energy and intention to shine a light forward I stepped into my role. Firstly announcing this carefully to a group of XL FM on Monday evening, and the next evening to set the intention for the Bali Convention at Vision Villa’s to all who had come from around the world to be part of the Convention.

The day itself was an amazing day…. thank you all for showing up, investing your time and energy to come to Bali and to be present! Thank you….

Thank you too to all who have made XL Nation a reality. A Huge Thank you to the Transformation team for getting us to where we are now.

We achieved massive results.

In my debrief with Roger and Michelle we shared our gems (things that shine).
Stepping up of Michelle and Martin. Creating completion on Integrity. A shift from checking out to see what the leaders have been up to, to realising that XL Nation is your country, what do YOU need to do to make it work (Buckminster Fuller told us that if you see a job that needs doing, put your name on the job!). People contributing with time, expertise and money to take ownership for outstanding projects (hurray!!) A clear path forward for the next 6 months. All inspired about the constant growing and real possibility for XL Nation! and ….. having all 3 XL XtraOrdinairy Life award winners in the room… how amazing that was.
And Congratulations to all, Andy, Michelle and Maya in particular! You are shining lights!

The opportunities (things that can be improved). Getting input from all to create the agenda in advance. Focussing on our communication to make it possible for all to be involved from where-ever people are.

Overall an amazing achievement! It will be my focus to keep this momentum and empower people to achieve the goals, tasks, completion of projects that they have chosen to commit to. I am excited and humbled to be part of XL Nation. The Global Nation for World wide Wealth attracting and empowering the World’s Change Makers.

Warm regards

Martin Jimmink

A message from Martin Jimmink to all XL Members

Dear all within XL Nation,

Thank you for investing your time, support and contribution to XL and XL Nation. My name is Martin Jimmink, I am the Chairperson and one of the three directors of XL Nation.
I have been an XL member since 2004. Soon after I invested in XL I was asked by Roger to be a regular mentor at EBS. Since 2007 I have also mentored at EBS Master Classes. I brought with me my knowledge of business systems… an interesting focus for a star to have!

Over the years I have had much enjoyment in by involvement with XL, in being able to be of service to you. It was with great surprise to be asked to be Chairperson for XL Nation in July. I am still getting my head around WHAT XL Nation could be…WHAT circles are….WHO is going to sort out stuff and WHEN will it be finished so all are comfortable and is there enough HOW for all to have clarity.

I was born in the Netherlands and immigrated to a new nation…. New Zealand. I went thru the hoops, applying for roles, being ‘sussed out ‘ by people. I was tested on my knowledge of the English language. I became aware that it was up to me to create a network, make friends, educate myself, find my way, create an income and my new life. In all these years I have contributed to the government with money so they could create the infrastructure for me to function. Good deal… I love being able to live in this country!

I see XL Nation in the same way. We speak the language of Wealth Dynamics, we have giving and receiving in common, making the world a better place, learning, being entrepreneurs. We have a nation to operate in and we have fellow citizens! We have stories, drama, right, wrong, people we like, people we are not sure of - just like a real country!

I see where I have overcomplicated things and then I am reminded what I learned whilst doing my MBA. KISS - Keep It Short and Simple. I just need to get on with doing what I love doing… as a founding member, mentor, chairperson, as Martin. I am reminded for me it is being abundant and inspirational… make MAGIC!

With this in mind I have been making a few choices. I have chosen that Incorporation is the way forward and have approached two other directors ( their stories will come out each week and our first director Charles story is attached) As soon as XL Nation is Incorporated the council can chose new directors. For now we are at least moving. The legal process is being done as I write.

Next week I will be in Bali, for the XL Nation Convention and it is my commitment to YOU to video as much as I can, so you can be part of what we will be talking about.

My email can be found on my profile on XL World.. contact me when you want to make MAGIC together!
And now…….. This week we’re introducing fellow Director Charles Buffett ( we’ll meet our other directors next week!)

Wealth Dynamics Tip of the Week

Thanks to Nick Haines for this weeks WD tip of the week. Nick Haines is a WDMP based in the UK. To learn a little bit more about Nick please click here.

I remember about 15 years ago we were having a big event at the Health Centre and things were going a bit hectic. My then Centre manager gently put her hand on my shoulder and said “we all think you are a bit stressed, you are being very controlling”. I knew that as someone with a high Wood frequency that would be a likely stress response, I had worked for years helping stop creative Wood types’ micro managing chaos. I was quite surprised how easily though I had fallen into a trap that I knew was there. There are lots of ways you can use the Water frequency, being still and reflecting is one. So I took myself away, reflected about how many people I had around me who wanted to make this work and then let them get on with their jobs. The result…. a great event and happier staff.

Wealth Dynamics Tip of the Week

From Nick Haines WDMP

Accumulators have the ability to take the most complex, break it down and come up with clearest and simplest of solutions. No waste, really efficient. So you will see them doing well in a business over the long term. They may or may not like numbers but they will like efficiency and numbers are sometime a way to measure that.
If I have a complex set of ideas that I am struggling with and want someone to help pull it together I will often turn to an Accumulator, I will often do this in preference to a dealmaker because although they have the same tempo assimilation I will often get a clearer truth with less desire to please me from an Accumulator. The outcome will still be put forward in a sympathetic way but I know there will be clarity through the Steels energy.

We Want Your Feedback

The Tempo team has an all important job of members communication . Part of that though is finding out what do the members want & how would they like to communicate with us? What would you like to see featured in XL in Touch each week? What other ways would you like us to communicate with you? What ever it is we want to hear from you so please send us your feedback either by clicking on the feedback button below or going into XL World and putting your suggestions here.

Wealth Dynamics Tip of the Week

Experts are able to make sense of history, while Entrepreneurs are able to make sense of the future. One needs to know in order to do. The other needs to do in order to know.

When economies fall into Winter season, it becomes the Winter of Discontent. The Autumn Earth is left behind and there is more upset than ever as the ground falls away. The ‘Mechanic’ stage of any cycle is often mistaken as ‘fix what is broken’ rather than ‘re-order for the approaching Spring’. Mechanics don’t take things apart just to see how things work. They take things apart to see how they can work better.

Circle Progress in XL Nation

It’s official, 2 months into XL Nation and we are into double Circle figures! Congratulations to Mike Clark in the UK and his London Leadership team for becoming the 10th Verified Circle and another 1st Generation Circle!! This now officially puts the UK at Number One position for Circle Action!

Well done to each of the Circle Leadership Teams.

League Table as it stands now by Country. These results are based on the country that the Circle Leader who set it up is from:

1. UK - 4 Circles
2. Australia - 3 Circles
3. Canada - 2 Circles
4. South Africa - 1 Circle e
5. Everyone else - 0 Circles at all….

Come on ‘Everyone else’… If you need some support for your Circle or for understanding more about Circles, contact Jeanette Jifkins or myself directly and get yourself a place on the official Mentoring Programme. To have your Circle established as a First Generation Circle of XL Nation, you need to have it verified by 30th May, so you still have a week to take some action and be amongst the very first Circles in XL Nation to get started. From June 1st, new Circles being ‘born’ as a result of being Mentored by one of the 10 First Generations, will become a 2nd Generation Circle and so on each month….

There are currently another 16 Circles being Mentored, so lets see who else makes it into the First Generation, May Verification!

XL Nation Circles Update

Already now in XL Nation we have 9 verified Circles! With Bob Urichuck in Canada having 2 of his Circles verified just this week - Congratulations to Bob! Click here to see a list of the Circles that are now verified. As Citizens of XL Nation you can choose to join any of the existing Circles that you resonate with One of the ways in which these Circles have been able to get up and running already is that they have been part of the XL Nation Circles Mentoring programme. This consists of members of the Transformation Team working with the Circle Leaders to help them and their Members get clear on 5 elements:

• Why are their Circle Members choosing to show up each month - The ‘Purpose’ of the Circle
• What experience do they want to create the for their Circle Members
• Who are the leaders and what are their roles
• When do they meet and where
• How do they format their first meeting and run it

Being ‘verified’ means they have now got an XL Nation code. Each of these Circles have been meeting, sharing value with one another and are measuring the contributions of their members for the month of May and I am looking forward to how much that is and reporting on that to all of you at the start of June!

If you would like to create a Circle to share your purpose and passion with other people and would like some assistance from the team of Mentors to get up and running with it, contact directly on XL world.

For more help and resources click here where our Community Help Team systems expert has been busy posting help guides and quick start guides that the TT have been creating for you.

Founding Members call - May 28th

Download the recording of last weeks Power Up with Martin Jimmink and Dave Rogers.

Last week we had a really cool Power Up with 2 of our fabulous EBS Mentors and Top Business Coaches, Martin and Dave. They shared the 3 principles for transformation and doing Deals with Heart. Thanks to Dave and Martin for the sharing and learning! It just amazes me how we can run a Power Up right to your office or living room these days using the technology available. I was hosting the event from the UK, Dave was presenting from Singapore and Martin was in New Zealand! We had the Tauranga Founding Members all dial in from Maureen Kennedy’s home as they also ran their own Power Up that night! For those of you that missed last weeks Power Up, I have attached the download for you to watch at leisure…

Greetings Citizens!

I had the pleasure last week of attending 3 of the 6 newly verified Circles in XL Nation! The Effective Transformation Circle made up of Country and City Leaders/new Circle Leaders, is a great example of what a circle is, who does what, when and where and how you run one… The meeting was run as a U stream call. I’m sure the leaders won’t mind that I have sent you the link to watch, so that for those of you setting up your own circles or wondering what they are you can get a flavour by watching here…

I also joined the Supporters Circle which was a tele conference where Mike Southon Best selling Author, Columnist for the Financial Times and one of the EBS Mentors was the guest speaker. We had some great discussions around leveraging and monetising value as a Supporter. Then I joined the North West UK Circle in person where we had a great discussion on applying the learning we shared into our lives this month. People expressed that they felt there was more connection in that one meeting than they had ever experienced in Power Ups and Momentums before! I certainly had a lot of fun. Well done to Jeanette Jifkins, Deb King and Hattie Hasan, Circle Leaders of each of those mentioned.

Update on XL Nation for April

I shared an update with the Country and City Leaders on their Monthly call on Friday which I felt would be useful to send out to everyone as it details what was achieved in the XLRF/XL Nation transformation project in April, what the plans are for May and some high level priorities for the coming months. Your City Leader can go into some more detail on this at your next Power Up/Circle Meeting. Of special note, is that of the Circles that met in April and reported on their contributions. In excess of $750,000 was donated in money and resources in April alone. Click here to download XL Nation update for April.

We are at a place in the Transformation Project now, where we have been heads down and really busy in the launch and set up of XL Nation and new Circles. Now we are a month in to XL Nation, we are ready to bring our ‘heads up’ and do some communications and updates to you all.

So here is a ‘heads up’ on some communications and dates for your diaries in the next month:

1. A personal letter from me outlining the changes in XLRF and XL Nation. Why all the changes, what exactly are they. What are the benefits to me as a Founding Member and what does it all mean. This will be sent out from Singapore towards the end of May, so look out for that arriving at your home address. If you dont think we have the most up to date address for you on file. Please email Melody.miranda@resultsfoundation.com so we can update your records accordingly.
2. A Power up for all XL Members. Martin Jimmink and Dave Rogers share with you - Deals with heart.
3. A Founding Members only U Stream call to update you on the changes and impact and to hear from some of the Founding Members and leaders around the world. What it has meant to them and how they are now accessing value in a different way. This call is on the 28th May 8-9am GMT. You can register there to be on this call and get the dial in details here.
4. Your Country and City Leaders will be having an update on Friday this week from the XLRF team and Roger on what the changes mean to them and what specific actions they should be taking right now, including the setting up of your local circles. On this update on Friday, we will provide the leaders with some slides and communications that they can use to update you at your next event/first circle meeting in May.

Have a great week ahead!

Greetings Citizens!

I had the wonderful experience of connecting with several of our Founding Members and Citizens in London last weekend at the UK Wealth Dynamics Experience. Roger spent some time with Founding Members and their guests on day 3, helping members to understand why circles are so important, what is the experience of a circle and how to go about getting set up with your own circle. We had 25 people Step Up to lead a circle and I am looking forward to watching and assisting those circle’s to get set up in May.

Your Country or City Leader is in the process of setting up your local Circle just now, so you will get to experience your first circle meeting within the next month. Already Sydney and Melbourne have both had their first meeting’s in the last week, so well done to Deb King and Jeanette and Tony Jifkins for getting those cirlcles up and going! One of the guests at the Melbourne Circle asked if he could invite all of his 600 clients to attend next months as it was such grat value!!

Here’s a testimonial from one of the members who was at the Melbourne circle meeting: “Hey Jeanette and Tony, Great night tonight – I feel the format works and judging by the energy, I think most of the Founding Members do too!” Rik Schnabel

We will begin the process of nomination’s for 2009 very soon and are looking for the Founding Members that you believe in 2009 have been leading and living Extraordinary Lives! All Citizens can nominate which Founding Members that they want to be shorlisted in the Extraordinary Lives Booklet for 2009. More details shortly…

Some FAQ’s on Founding Membership:

Why has my Life Membership become a Founding Membership. Am I a Founding Member or not?

All Life Members on the 1st April automatically became Founding Members of XL Nation. Every Nation has a group of people who were the first there… The Founding Members or Founding Father’s. All of our Life Members will be recorded forever in history, as we grow to millions of effective givers, as the ones who were here first and got this Nation started!

What does it mean to be a Founding Member?

There are many privilidges of being a Founding Member. Fundamentally it means that as a Founding Member you now are part of a team of up to 3600 Founding Members all around the world who have a say and a vote on the way in which XL Nation operates and can hold it accountable to the XL Vision of WWW. Founding Members as members of the senate can, if neccessary over rule decisons made by the Forum to make sure the values and mission of XL Nation are upheld.

So you may be asking… what about all the privildiges we recieved as Life Members before? Well, they are all still there, what we have done is added to them and as members of the senate, guess what? You can vote to add in more privilidges too. Check out this presentation from Roger recently which shares in much more detail a comparison between Life and Founding Membership. Page 35 is specifically relevant to Founding Memberships

Also, check out this video to see some of our Founding Members sharing what they see are some of the privilidges of thier Membership.

Who can become a Founding Member?

Someone who you believe will uphold the same values of XL Nation and who you see is a Social Entreprenenur who is planning to be part of our WWW journey for Life. Esentially, you get to choose who the Founding Members are!

When will XL Results Foundation stop releasing Founding Memberships?

We have only 3600 Founding Memberships in total and already have over 3000 Founding Members worldwide. Once they are all gone, they are all gone and will only be available via transfer sale from individual members

How can someone become a Founding Member?

They need to be invited by you first into your circle! If you have someone you want to invite, they can join as a Founding Member in the same way as you would have invited in a new Life Member. You can bring them to a Breakfast near you, (contact your city leader for more details) If you would like to open up the Founding Membership opportunity to a larger group of people and are looking to set up a specific circle yourself just for Founding Members, you can contact me directly for some more guidance. Individuals doing this will qualify for a 25% commission on new Founding Members joining, which is $2500 per member.

Greetings Citizens!

I want to tell you about something magical that has happened. The Global Economic Crisis… What? Yes, it has changed my life and literally forced us all to totally change the way XL is going about achieving World Wide Wealth! Do you, like me, believe that it is absolutely possible that we can end world poverty in our lifetimes? That we can reverse the damage being done to the planet? That we can provide healthcare to everyone? I have always known it was possible and … read more

Why become a Citizen of XL Nation?

There are those extraordinary people around the world like our Founding Members who know that there is a bigger reason, a bigger purpose as to why they are here on this planet. We also know that we aren’t the only ones who feel that way. There are millions of ‘us’ out there who want to play a bigger game, get connected in a bigger, more powerful way and to contribute in a much bigger more effective way. By joining as a Citizen you immediately get connected to the individuals around the world who are doing exactly that already and you get to access the resources needed to achieve your dreams!

Greetings Citizens of XL Nation!

The Butterfly has emerged from the Chrysalis and is learning how to fly high…

It really isn’t every day you see a new Nation created, let alone get to be there at its launch and to actually be a part of it! Yes, XL Nation launched on 31st March in Bali. I was incredibly honoured and proud to be surrounded by 150 Social Entrepreneurs from all around the world, who had gathered to celebrate the Birth of a new Nation. A nation without borders, land, or the need to just be independent. A Nation that spans the entire planet, made up of millions of change makers. Social Entrepreneurs who know, that by connecting, collaborating and communicating, they can achieve World Wide Wealth and will see the end of poverty around the world in their life time.

A huge thank you to the Transformation team who have worked incredibly hard over the past 2 months, to put the foundations in place for XL Nation and for pulling National Day together so beautifully. I also want to thank those that have continued to step Up and will be pivotal leaders as we now move to phase II of the Transformation project.

An ever bigger thank you to Roger and Dave for having the bold and beautiful vision to create XLRF as a way for Social Entrepreneurs to connect, towards achieving World Wide Wealth and for being even more bold and beautiful, as they passed over the leadership flame from the ‘old’ Leadership team, to the Citizens of XL Nation, the new Leadership Team on National Day. See some of the pictures here

A particularly special moment during my trip to Bali was when Leon and I were out looking for some inspiration on how to finish National Day and this is what we found, allowing the Kupu Kupu (butterfly’s) to get their wings and fly…

Who is a Citizen and can anyone join XL Nation

How to set up your Circle? How to join a new Citizen?
Have a great week ahead!

Michelle

Why XL Nation?

It just may be possible that this is your first time of hearing about XL Nation and you are asking why do we need to change? Well, now is a time of fundamental change on the planet. The Global Economic Crisis seeing every day more collapsing of the old ‘top down’ paradigms in our economies.7 Years in to XL Results Foundation and we have 3200 members around the world all committed to being the change. Moving towards a new ‘for Social Profit’ model with XL Nation allow’s us to connect with literally ‘millions’ of other Social Entrepreneur’s aorund the world who believe in the 2020 vision and who all wish to see an end to world poverty in their life time.

What happened at National Day?

Hanafi is busy editing all of the film’s we made for and on National Day. More content will be added on Thursday this week, specifically of various segments of National Day, including the declaration of inter-dependence read beautifully by 11 year old Teresa, the handing over of the leadership from Roger to XL Nation Citizens, the emergence of the butterfly’s from the chrysallis and the butterfly’s finding their wings and flying!! For now, check out some of the great content about XL Nation here and look out for additions during the coming week there and in XL World as well.

Who is a Citizen and can anyone join XL Nation?

A citizen is quite simply someone who is a ‘Social Entrepreneur’: A social entrepreneur is an ‘effective giver’ where every transaction adds more value to World Wide Wealth.

Someone who see’s that through collaboration and connection, together, we can achieve our goal of World Wide Wealth. A person may only join XL Nation when invited by a current Citizen, to join their Circle of Trust . The Citizen making the invitation becomes the persons ‘buddy’ (Term ‘Citizen’ includes Founding Members) Only people who have a ‘buddy’, will be accepted directly into XL Nation. If you dont have a buddy to invite you to join, you can sit on a wait list until a Citizen decides to invite you to join their circle directly and offers to be your Buddy.

When do we start inviting in new Citizens to our Circles?

You can start this now! From the 31st March, on XL National Day, XL Nation became live… Go to XL Nation website and see how to invite a new Citizen to your Circle in XL Nation. The price to become a Citizen is S$360 per annum and provides you with a WD Profile token, full access to XL World and a place at your very first Circle of Trust! Citizens can join as many Circles as they choose and pay any costs associated with that circle, as defined by the Circle leadership.

How do I set up my own Circle!

You can either set up or join an existing Circle, its up to you! If you have a particular passion and purpose and you know that at least 12 other Citizens around the world somewhere would want to be a part of it, then you can begin to set one up! Circle’s dont need to be limited to geogrpahical areas. With technology now, you can have online circles and use all kinds of methods for your regular meetings! You will find the basics of how to get started here in this group in XL World. Each Circle has a leadership team and you can learn more about these roles in this group too. More content will be added to this group, during the week to make it easier to use and to follow. Do give us your tips so that we can add them in there as well! In the coming weeks will also be a video on running a successful Circle, which will be added to this page!
