6. From intuition to insight
We have relied too often on our
intuition to take critical decisions
The intuition is generally based on a
construct/preconceived notion with
which we are comfortable with
We further justify our actions based
on our constructs but as we know
these can be flawed
The same thing can be seen in
different ways…
11. We need to do away with preconceived notions,
assumptions, biases by objectively understanding
the DNA of our workforce
