Law of Intuition
The Law of Intuition is one of the Leadership Laws written by John C Maxwell.
The Law of Intuition is one of the most complex Laws to understand as it focus on the things beyond the facts.
In today’s world, we see so much manipulation, bogus data and double face people….still we have to make decisions and move forward..and here the great leaders use their Intuition.
“Leaders evaluate everything with a leadership bias” – John C. Maxwell
Leadership is more art than science, you need to work on your internal beliefs in order to create your external reality.
Great leaders look at things differently, they evaluate everything with a leadership bias, as a result, they instinctively, almost automatically, know what to do and have the courage to do it: “they use their intuition”.
βThe Law of Intuition is based on facts plus instinct plus other intangible factors.β
When we are intuitive we are able to come to some good decisions or interpretations by seeing beyond the facts or circumstances as they are presented to us. There is the additional factor of having the right awareness, expressed through a feeling in the gut.
Maxwell says : Leaders have great sense of intuition, leaders evaluate everything with a leadership bias. This informed intuition helps leaders to respond and play their own game.
And so, Leaders are the :
β¨ Readers of their situation :
β¨ Readers of trends
β¨ Readers of their resources
β¨ Readers of people
β¨ Readers of themselves
Whenever leaders find themselves facing a problem, they automatically measure it and solve it by using Law of Intuition.
We all have practically observed this in action when leaders of an organisation make leadership decision that go directly against the grain of their previous thinking.
Without intuition, leaders get blindsided.
Some are god gifted and some nurture it by introspecting, Continue learning, communicating, observing.
So, we can say this is one of the important Laws which differentiates between great leaders and merely good leaders.
