We make an average of 35,000 choices per day – crazy, right? And while some of those might be smaller, like what to have for lunch, leaders often have to make split-second decisions on some pretty big things. So how can we start making better decisions? Neuroscience consultant and mindset change & mindfulness coach Dr. Fra Mega has a suggestion: Intuition.
Tune in to this episode to hear Dr. Fra discuss:
- Why combining the body and mind is integral to making good decisions
- Why intuition doesn’t deserve the bad rep it has
- How we rationalize intuitive decisions after the fact
- What to do to tune into your intuition
- How being a mentor influences how you act everyday
- How to help your team use intuition-based decision making
