 In
over two decades of research, Gary Klein has found that the most
critical decisions we make are based on intuition. Although
sometimes difficult to explain, intuition is important in making
decisions and is based on the ability to recognize patterns and
interpret cues, i.e., it develops through experience. In Klein's new
book
The Power of Intuition
(formerly titled Intuition at Work), specific practical steps
are offered to improve your intuition to help you perform your job
more confidently and successfully. Filled with vivid examples,
practice scenarios, and exercises, this authoritative book will help
you develop and strengthen this critical skill crucial to navigating
the workplace challenges you face everyday.

Intuition:
General Anthony C.
Zinni, USMC (retired)
"Gary Klein is regarded as the leading expert on intuition and has
produced another groundbreaking work on the subject. This is a
must-read for all those charged with making important decisions and
for those who want to truly understand how we decide things."
Karl E. Weick,
Rensis Likert Distinguished University Professor of Organizational
Behavior and Psychology, University of Michigan Business School
"Gary Klein does a masterful job of accessing 'invisible' intuition in
this book. [His] rigorous appreciation reveals that intuition is an
improvable skill, which is surely welcome news at a time when so much
is up for grabs."
Tom Kelley,
general manager of IDEO, author of The Art of Innovation
"Intuition is an essential tool for innovation, and Gary Klein shows
us how it's done. For anyone managing uncertainty (and who isn't these
days?), reading this book would be time well spent."
Thomas Petzinger, CEO, LaunchCyte LLC,

intuition. Now, in his new book, he demonstrates how to marshal it
into the service of better organizations. Gary Klein is our guru of
effective decision making."

written a clear, useful book that will help managers increase the
quality of their decision making. Read it!"
Jon Katzenbach,

"Good executives
recognize that they make decisions based on the gut instincts
developed from experience. Based on years of research in fields from
firefighting to chess, Gary Klein has developed an actionable model
for how to systematically develop and leverage expert intuition. His
work cannot be ignored by anyone who makes decisions for high stakes." |
