Intuition as a Brain Skill in Management.

Agor, Weston H.

Public Personnel Management, v14 n1 p15-24 Spr 1985

Over 2,900 managers were studied to test their ability to use intuition. The intuition portion of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator was the test instrument. Results indicate that ability to use intuition does vary by management level, by level of government service, by sex, by occupational speciality, and to some degree by ethnic background. Possible practical applications are discussed. (CT)
