Liquidmetal Technologies Inc (LQMT)

[ThinkorDie]

Bromage is a PhD in Psychology.

He's a psych guy who probably couldn't or didn't want to be a doctor, so he got a job in Aerospace... Then tech companies, in Silicon Valley. Gotta pay off those student loans somehow I guess.


I could see how a person trained in psychology could excel in sales, he's obviously got the intelligence to learn quickly, as evident by his numerous positions in several industries.

(from an HR perspective) What competencies does this guy have that can make LQMT money?

He led development for an atomic clock at SYMM. Ok, so he has experience in project mgmt, but to what extent did he generate revenues? Sounds like he led people to did that work. Leading and managing people is a talent good psych people have... but if the teams at LQMT of developers haven't been able to get anything done so far, how will bringing in a leader help? I'd rather see a replacement of the team, and get a leader with engineering skills, not sales, project mgmt, and psychology skills.

Just a few months ago in June he was working on an app to help people with alzheimers. What's this guy's deal? I'm not sold on him, it seems from his resume that his career is all over the place with no direction, which leads me to believe a job at LQMT for him is just a job.

I'd be happier to see a strong leadership core of people who are passionate about injection molding, engineering, R&D, and manufacturing parts, not med school dropouts and silicon valley nomads.

I wouldn't have hired him.
