The first was intuition as a process or as just the outcome. I have always thought of it as a quick decision. However, as we set up our exercise for class, there is a little bit of a process that goes into each decision, even if we were not aware of it at the time. The second thing that I thought was interesting was when you mention the effects of managers moving positions often. Do you think intuition comes with age and experience or do you think its a natural ability?

However, I find the argument that managers are more effective in decision making when they have more experience in their work environment, to be true. I believe not only does knowledge about the work place benefit outcomes, but an increase in confidence in managerial responses enhances the outcomes of their intuition.Chelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621168195567847932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4509736829271344872.post-19159469876218001042018-09-17T21:11:22.001-04:002018-09-17T21:11:22.001-04:00Please elaborate on the independence model of cogn...Please elaborate on the independence model of cognitive processing.

In the argument of "nature vs nurture" experience and implicit learning are grown from our environment. Because of this, would you agree that the fundamental differences in how global leaders make decisions can be attributed to the foundational and contextual differences in environment that directly impact intuition?<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402199214046211213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4509736829271344872.post-59859023926386039022018-09-16T18:21:58.410-04:002018-09-16T18:21:58.410-04:00I find there is a point here that you have that is...I find there is a point here that you have that is quite telling about how intuition was created a decision advantage for the manager within their industry, suggesting that experience and knowledge of the industry plays into intuitive judgements. While I can't prove this definitively, I think there is some analytical processes that become ingrained and no longer require significant effort and processing. While we regard this is intuition, I do believe there are some analysis that couches intuitive judgements. I do think that this belief is coherent with the independence model of cognitive processing.

I would've been inclined to say intuition is another word for a hunch, or a feeling that you know, just because you know it. I think it's influenced by your lifetime of experiences and expertise. Maybe that gathering of experience and expertise is the process, and the decision you ultimately make based on the intuition is the outcome. And maybe when you're talking about that in an end-to-end clump, then it's a mix of the two. I can reconcile all of that. But I'm stuck on how intuition itself can be considered a process or an outcome, or both at the same time. Even the definition the used, “affectively charged judgments that arise through rapid, nonconscious, and holistic associations” doesn't really work for me because I think intuition is a feeling that influences those judgments rather than those judgments themselves. I realize that's splitting hairs, but was there any one definition the authors presented that you really agreed with beside the one they used as the basis for their paper?
