Do you want speedier decisions? Better outcomes? And avoid costly mistakes? Your gut can help you. In fact, intuition is an essential tool that all leaders use to get to the top.
If you’ve ever made a choice that looked illogical but proved to be right or had a sixth sense about something, your intuition was at work. Those hunches play a critical role in everything from deciding which job to take, who to hire and what to focus on. Which means that summoning intuition on demand and listening to what it’s telling you are vital at a time of radical change and instability.
This ground-breaking book draws on the latest science, eye-opening anecdotes from senior leaders and the author’s own insights gained over 25 years’ coaching. It will show you that intuition is a practical, learnable, and immediately applicable skill that will accelerate your career.
