This is a preview of a presentation that I'm developing on the value of intuition in our work, and how to build that sense (and sensitivity). I'm not a neuroscientist or a researcher of any kind. And I like to think I'm not a snake-oil dealer either. This comes from my collected experiences and such over 15ish years of working on teams and with clients in fast-paced development environments and 40ish years of life. It is intended to help you develop your abilities to make good, quick decisions that improve solutions and the collaboration and trust you need to do good work.
