Strategic Intuition: The Creative Spark in Human Achievement
Date
Sep 30, 2007, 12:00 AM
Speakers:
Professor William Duggan, Columbia Business School
Ideas often come from a flash of insight. Things come together in your mind. Your brain connects the dots. Modern brain science now reveals how these flashes of insight happen. It's a special form of intuition—strategic intuition—because it gives you an idea for action, a strategy. Strategic intuition works in new situations. Now that we know how flashes of insight happen, we can learn to recognize and use strategic intuition to galvanize our thinking and solve problems.
