Summary:

With the onslaught of the Big Data revolution, data-based decision making and analytics are now the rage. However, many key decision makers often make complementary judgments based on intuition. This intuition is often insight-based due to their experiential learning, ephemeral factors like spirituality, and other related factors. This book focuses on this intuition-based decision making. It presents stories and vignettes from leaders and senior executives in industry, academe, government, and not-for-profits-- Provided by publisher.
