*** Unpacking Intuition – Professor Eugene Sadler-Smith – University of Surrey

How can a fire chief know what do so with a fire before he has properly assessed it? How did an air traffic controller avoid a near certain collision? How do we just know whether someone likes us or not? What is ‘gut feeling’ & how can it be harnessed?

To what extent should business decisions be informed by ‘instincts’ which may seem irrational or impossible to quantify?

What is insight? How do we know when we have it; how can we get more of it & help others to develop it. How is insight linked to ideation & innovation?

Both intuition and insight are major thinking process and skills with a wide application to learning & development in this the second of our Ready State L&TD Webinars

Looks Good

Thanks for that…looks good and in the Lakes which makes it even more attactive. Think it could be a bit "far out" to put on expenses though.

Anyone on here from Oil and Gas, Nuclear, Energy, Defence Industries? Please PM me.
