If you’re working with incomplete or conflicting information, this episode looks at how intuition can be used alongside data to support clearer and faster decision-making.Karen and Leah look at:The limits of relying only on data in complex and uncertain situationsHow misunderstanding control leads to ineffective decision-makingIntuition as experience-based input, not guessworkThe impact of information overload on clarity and judgmentThe use of simple structures to support better decisionsWhen data is not enough, decision quality depends on how well leaders use both analysis and experience to move forward with clarity.-----Leah Goldman is the founder of The Intuition Strategist, an advisory firm helping ambitious leaders and organizations integrate intuition and strategy to achieve aligned success.
