orchasm

The ecstasy a management consultant experiences at the moment he or she creates a new adoption curve, 2 X 2 matrix, acronym, or corporate buzz word. An homage to consultant Geoffrey Moore's concept of the Technology Adoption Lifecycle and the "chasm" that exists between innovators and early adopters of technology.

After grappling all day with how to present the new market strategy to the big client, Simon experienced a powerful orchasm as the last bit of data fit neatly within the parameters of his newly created adoption curve.
