Your Intuition Basics Harnessing intuition is rapidly becoming a skill set of the mainstream corporate world, with more business leaders and executives prescribing to use their intuitive skills. A 2006 PRWeek/Burson-Marsteller CEO Survey revealed that “62 percent of CEOs indicate that gut feelings are highly influential in guiding their business strategies.” Intuition is available to everyone and like any skill, it can be developed and enhanced to give you results. Intuitive and creative capabilities are part of the right brain functions, while lateral and intellectual capabilities are part of the left brain functions. Intuition communicates with you for a myriad of situations – data for a work project appears to be correct, but your gut instinct gives you a sense of unease; hiring a new team-member purely on a hunch that he or she would be a better fit despite the lack of paper qualifications; choosing to drive a different route to the office on the spur of the moment, only to learn later of a major traffic tail-back in your usual route. Assimilating intuition with intellectual data allows you to solve problems, work out dilemmas and to make appropriate decisions, thereby allowing you to work smarter, not harder. Some useful pointers about intuition include:
Finally, to be more receptive to hearing your intuition, clear your mind of all mindless chatter, either through meditation or a contemplative exercise – this will allow your intuition to surface through the silence.
