ZMET (Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique *) is a patented research tool based on the latest research in the social and biological sciences. Developed by Jerry Zaltman, it is exclusive to Olson Zaltman Associates and the organizations we have trained and licensed to use it. ZMET digs deeper than traditional methods to uncover "hidden knowledge" - the underlying beliefs and feelings that influence the behavior of consumers and other stakeholders.
