Developing Entrepreneurial Intuition Training Programme

Intuition

The mind relies on two parallel systems of information processing, one analytical and the other intuitive. Analytical thinking can be particularly reliable in structured or routine tasks. In complex judgmental situations however, an over-reliance on analysis can blind us to new opportunities or creative associations. Intuition can draw informed judgments rapidly, even from small cues of information, particularly when addressing unstructured tasks in areas of domain expertise. As a result, the role of intuitive processing is being increasingly discussed in enterprise and business management.

‘Intuition in Management and Entrepreneurship’ comprised two-hour sessions that introduced participants to intuition together with how it can be effectively employed in a business environment. Participants were guided on how to recognise intuition, enable it, and blend its use with rational analysis. Sessions were held twice at MCAST Institute of Business Management and Commerce, on the 16th and 17th of November 2021, between 14.30 and 16.30, and were facilitated by Mr. Keith Coleiro a Master in Creativity and Innovation graduate student from the Edward de Bono Institute, University of Malta.
