Sometimes things happen in business that will come as a surprise. Some surprises are good and others are not so good. Being able to see the road ahead and know what action to take is a vital skill for both a leader and a manager.
Seeing ahead is made up of a few different components -
- Access to information. Who you talk to and what you are listening to makes a big difference. Listening is also a lesser practised skill that can get you ahead if you are able to listen to what is being said and then figure out a way to use that knowledge for your benefit.
- Sheer Instinct. Making a decision based on gut feel isn't always a bad thing. You won't always get it right but you need to make a hard call sometime. The way to make better gut calls is to make them more often and then reassess what happened and what the effects were after the fact.
- Women's intuition. Ladies have a third instinct. There's no two ways about it. If somethings up - a female will know. Ask their opinion before you proceed.
