The term quantmleap refers to the physical phenomena called Quantum Leap. Before explaining why this site is called ‘quantmleap’ it might be useful to note what Quantum Leap is all about. Wikipedia defined this term as a change of an electron from one quantum state to another within an atom. Well, this site is not a scientific site, so in the context of ‘quantmleap’ the definition I’d rather use is a sudden large increase or advance from one state to another.

This blog is an attempt to look at the art of project management from unorthodox and unconventional perspective, utilizing the latest in science, art and philosophy to examine and explain assumptions and methods widely used within the Project Management profession.

My name is Shim Marom, I’m a husband, father of 4 and (in my spare time) a Project Manager (PMP). I have been involved in the business implementation of IT projects in New Zealand and Australia with extensive hands-on experience in Data Modelling and Information Engineering while over the past 13 years I have been mainly engaged in project managing the development and deployment of IT Business Systems.

My main objective in working on this blog is discussing hot topics in not just Project Management but, more importantly, general management issues and other peripheral topics, including Human Resources and other soft management points.

I acknowledge the fine and informative blogs that already exist in this space and hope I would be able to make a small contribution towards the common knowledge base.

Hope you enjoy reading my blog.
