Influences Decision Making
Beliefs helps us make sense of experiences and serve
as our moral foundation.
Beliefs operate as if they are True.
Set boundaries to what is perceived as possible and
shapes the way of thinking.

Understanding how you perceive

insight, intuition, and vision

Vision: is the capacity to see the world holistically, as an interrelated web of

relationships
linked
in
patterns.
Vision
is what you see as possible for yourself and what you want in your life or for your
company when you look ahead. In business, part of holistic thinking is contained in
systems thinking, which is a way of mapping interrelationships in a process.

Intuition: is the ability to know without use of the rational mind. Intuition relies on
learned patterns to rapidly isolate workable actions in rapidly changing
circumstances.

Insight: is most aptly described by author Gary Klein as seeing what others dont.
Its the capacity to discover new patterns in the everyday that lead to totally
different ways of viewing the world. In the world of business, insight disrupts
habitual thinking so something new can arise, or it serves as an advance warning
sign.

Gauging Personal Comfort with

Conflict and Ambiguity
Using conflict to your advantage

Differences in information and different interpretations of the same

information: The same information can be perceived in many different ways. If one
person needs his or her interpretation to be the right interpretation, conflict can result.

Differences in values due to dissimilar ways of thinking about whats

important: Companies and individuals often use beliefs to make their decisions. Beliefs
are about what you think is true about how the world works. Values are about what is
important.

Unmet expectations that create feelings of fear or lack of trust: Fixed ideas on
what should happen next or what you expect to happen is a surefire way to be
disappointed when the outcome doesnt turn out exactly as you expected.

Dealing with conflict collaboratively

Center yourself Restoring calm to your feelings and mind enable them to work
together. When you are centered, you can see the situation with a clearer mind.

Think of the conflict as a good sign Conflict occurs when people care about the
issue. Where there is conflict, there is energy available to work with. The key is being
able to direct that energy into constructive effort.

Listen carefully to understand the true intent of the person you are
speaking with Often, when listening to one another, people tend to latch onto a
sound bite, jump to conclusions, and then run off with the wrong idea. As you can
imagine, the situation ends badly. Listening intently means letting go of preconceived
notions and paying attention to the values and concerns underlying what is being
said with the intention of understanding the situation.
