Let Us Study

Whenever people are faced with different kinds of problems, it is very

crucial to think of means of addressing them and preventing those
circumstances from happening again. But solutions are greatly influenced by
the manner in which one defines the problem and adopts a solution based on
his/her own understanding. There are basically two different perspectives in
addressing the problem.

1. Analytical thinking is a kind of logical thinking that addresses the

problems or issues by breaking it into its component parts. It uses
scientific methods of research and adopts frameworks or models to
solve the problems. Managers, especially those running big companies
or projects, tend to use this thinking strategy to pursue changes in
directing plans and goals.

Analytical thinking focuses and deals with concerns at a

particular time. It also contains time, is deconstructive, but is subject
to disorientation, brain-centered and tends to the abstract. It is
considered efficient in the following conditions: sufficient time,
relatively static conditions, a clear differentiation between the observer
and the observed. It is best suited for dealing with complexities, and
works best where there are established criteria for analysis (for
example, rules of law). It requires an explanation, seeks the best option,
and can be taught in classroom to beginners.

2. Intuitive thinking is the kind of thinking that helps one understand

reality by perception or intuition without logic or analysis. It derived its
confidence from experiences. There are no analytical steps or methods
but based its action from observed indicators in the organizational
environment. It allows individual to develop his own mode of solution in
addressing strategic issues. Intuitive approaches are personal and

3
 custom-made. It some-times derived a problem-based solution that is not
quite easy to share and at times too difficult to copy or adapt. Managers
utilized the power of persuasion to get people agree rather than the logical
sense of coming up with an action.

Intuition works best where the observer has the same experience
in the particular situation. It is difficult to teach in the classroom, has
the tendency to work on feelings in favor of a more workable solution.
Intuition is experience translated by expertise to produce rapid action.

Charles Parselle, founding partner of Centers for Excellence in Dispute

Resolution - CEDRS.COM , presented his comparison of the components of
Analytical and Intuitive thinking.

Let Us Remember

Things to Remember!

There are three ways of discovering non-intuitive things. The following

are as follows:

1. Gaining more experience.

Experience is a great teacher. More experiences you have the easier it
is for you to see the similarities between new ideas and previous learning.
Experience teaches you to identify if various kind of projects, objectives or

6
 problems are straight forward or not. It also teaches you which one
employs non-intuitive (or counter intuitive) issues to address. In other
words, experience hones your intuition. It can make non-intuitive thinking
become intuitive thinking.
2. Experimentation.
Experimentation can help you uncover inconsistencies. Tinkering is a
great way to discover something that isn’t consistent with what you
thought.
3. Learn by reading, studying & teaching and learning process with your
mentors.
The more you build your foundation, the more you learn about the
nuances, differences and subtleties of a wide array of mysteries. Then,
intuitive thinking and non-intuitive thinking become easier in the real life
context.

Let Us Assess

Direction: Read each statement carefully. Write TRUE if the statement is true
and FALSE if the statement is false. Write your answers before the number.

2. Strategic analysis works best only for bigger organizations like
business institution.
3. Intuitive thinking is not accepted in the scientific world.
4. Rational reasoning is better than intuitive thinking.
5. Critical tools are needed in instinctive thinking.
6. Intuitive thinking is hunch-based and spontaneous.
7. Intuition is something known as infused knowledge.
8. Strategic analysis must be used always to ensure success in life.
9. Individuals engaged in strategic analysis apply all cognitive processes
in the orientation towards attainment of success in future.
10. Only the internal environment is important in strategic analysis
11. The honing of a critical mind must start at an early age
12. In a business organization, strategic analysis may mean
understanding of its external and internal settings.

Lesson

2 Apply strategic analysis

Let Us Study

Everyday we make choices in our lives. Sometimes our decisions are

based on impulses that we need to face along with the unfavorable
consequences of our actions. We cannot afford to commit the same mistakes
at all times. This is why there are institutions that create strategic analysis at
least intuitive thinking, if the latter makes sense.

According to Urgel, E. (2017), Strategic analysis is the process of

examining the organization’s surroundings and resources to better formulate
a strategy to meet the desired objectives and improved the organization’s
performance. It is the understanding of an organization’s external and internal
environments. It also deals with the creation and better utilization of resources
in the pursuit of their objectives and priorities. Such understanding is drawn
from the facts data, and instructions at hand.

Strategic analysis, for example, can be done by an organization to

analyze its losing performance. It is based on data and information about the
internal profile of its employees and their capabilities and work attitudes. It
can be done by the organization to investigate the external profile of its
surrounding, opportunities, and possible rivals. Moreover, intuitive thinking
is sensing or knowing without using rational processes such as reading facts
and instructions. According to the dictionary, intuition is something that is
known or understood without proof or evidence. In short, intuitive is making
choices and decisions according to one’s hunch and gut feeling without
knowing the reason why.

Good intuition results from long years of knowledge and experience

which enable you to comprehend how people think, act, and react, perceive
and interpret, and interact with one another.

A critical mind or analytical mind usually exercises strategic thinking.

Samantha Howland (2015) identified six elements of strategic thinking
designed to encourage strategic leadership among today’s executives. It is
drawn from a study of more than 20,000 executives in more than 175

9
countries. The six key elements are abilities to anticipate, challenge, decide,
interpret, learn, and align.

1. The ability to anticipate enables the executives to not only focus on

the current situation but also to look at the future. They should
monitor the environment to foresee significant changes in the
industry to prepare them for possible threats as well as
opportunities. For instance, an executive who keeps abreast with
trends and engages in trendspotting is more likely to be open to
product changes or to beef up the company’s product strength in
anticipation of trend. An example is when a garment executive spots
a consumer preference for plaid print, he or she gradually reduces
the production of apparels with floral design and shifts to plaid print.
2. The ability to challenge involves raising questions instead of merely
accepting information as it comes. The purpose of raising questions
is to trace the root causes of problems, to challenge existing beliefs,
and to find out biases and possible manipulation of the situation.
Probing and investigation may also be employed.
3. The ability to interpret is shown by testing a variety of hypotheses as
well as comparing and contrasting certain data prior to making
decisions on particular issues. The executive avoids jumping into
conclusions without sound basis.
4. The ability to decide enables to executive to make a stand with
courage and conviction despite incomplete information at hand. The
executive combines speed and quality in doing this for them to avoid
indecision or “analysis paralysis which prevent a leader from acting
fast, thereby missing chances of opportunities.
5. The ability to align enables the executive to have different divergent
viewpoints, opinions, and agenda to attain common goals and to
pursue mutual interests. Open communication and dialogue will
help address the problem of misalignment and build trust leading to
consensus and agreements.
6. The ability to learn is demonstrated by an executive who accepts
feedback, constructive criticism, and even failure which are
altogether viewed as source of critical and valuable insights. He or
she shows willingness to immediately return to the right course when
going off tract. Failures are considered lessons for success.

Strategic analysis is useful not only to an organization but also to an

individual such as student like you. Your current situation in striving to finish
senior high school can be assessed by the following: (a) knowing your
strengths such as your competencies and values, weaknesses such as
negative attitude and needs to be filled, (b) threats such as events and

10
situations that prevent you from focusing on your studies, and other factors
that can help you improve your skills.

Are you failing or getting poor grades? What good habits can you develop
to address this problem? Whom can you approach to help you improve your
grades? Strategic analysis can be a way to turn your weakness into strengths
and to take advantage of situations that will boost your confidence as a
student. It will guide you in staying on course toward finishing senior high
school.

The honing and nurturing of a critical mind or strategic thinking must

start at an early age. Students like you should be provided with opportunities
to develop this ability for self-improvement. It can also guide you in giving
service to others (for example as an officer in the student council). In such
case, the students develop strategic thinking which is reflected in his or her
abilities to anticipate, decide, challenge, learn, align, and interpret.

4 key qualities of strategic thinkers

Bring to your mind a professional leader you admire. Have you chosen them
because of their innovation, intelligence or ability to engage audiences? Or
maybe you like their capacity to critique process and procedure while still
being receptive to feedback and change? If your model leader possesses any of
the above qualities, they’re a strategic thinker. Here are four qualities that all
strategic thinkers possess, and continue to work on throughout their lives:

1. They’re always learning

Strategic thinking skills are developed by committing to constant
learning and self-improvement. Whether it’s learning from their own
experiences, the experiences of others, books, presentations, networks,
conferences or junior colleagues, strategic thinkers don’t dismiss any
potential sources of education.
2. They always seek advice from others
In the spirit of being able to prepare for the future and make constant
improvements, strategic thinkers’ welcome feedback and advice from
others. They test ideas and concepts and ensure that criticisms are
examined and incorporated where relevant. This process makes their
plans and strategies as robust and steadfast as possible.
3. They’re not afraid to take risks
Great strategic thinkers understand that professional excellence doesn’t
always emerge from a cookie-cutter approach. After careful
consideration, they take risks on new ideas, innovative solutions and

11
 unique pitches, prepared for both success and failure, and always
willing to learn from their mistakes.
4. They never forget organizational purpose
Whether a business builds intuitive websites for clients or sells diverse
share portfolios, strategic thinkers will never neglect their purpose or
people. If the strategic thinking and planning doesn’t revolve around
these two key elements, it has failed to be strategic at all.

In its simplest form, strategic thinking is an ability to plan for the future.
It’s the capacity to prepare strategies and conjure ideas that will both cope
with changing environments and consider the various challenges that lie
ahead. Candidates that possess strategic thinking skills will be seen as top
talent, and it’s a quality that makes many managers, directors and executives

Intuitive thinking involves a more spontaneous, instinctive, and

unplanned process of solving a problem. Evaluation of the situation and the
perceived alternative course of action are quick and board. Actions and
decisions spring from hunches and gut feeling based on unpremeditated ideas
or experiences rather from facts and hard data. This type of thinking tends to
be imaginative and more applicable in situations where facts are insufficient
and previous related decisions are not readily available.

Intuitive thinkers do certain things which other do not. Carolyn Gregorie

(2014), senior writer of The Huffington Post provided the Ten Things Highly
Intuitive People Do Differently. The following activities are as follows:

(1) Listening to an inner voice. They pay attention to intuition and allow
it to guide them.
(2) Taking time to be alone and to reflect. Spending time in solitude is
their way of engaging in deeper thoughts and creative thinking. It is
also called “mindfulness” which means looking into one’s current
experience without making judgement.
(3) Listening to their bodies. They tune in to their bodies for gut feeling
and physical sensation or emotion associated with intuition.
(4) Observing everything. They take note of the occurrence of odd things
and keep an eye on the frequency of coincidences, unexpected
connections, and instantaneous decisions or actions done.
(5) Paying attention to their dreams. It refers to the way of getting in
touch with their “unconscious thinking process” and of capturing
information on how to live their lives.
(6) Connecting deeply with others and staying in a positive mood. They
can read a person’s mind through his or her words, feelings, and
actions. Avoiding negative emotions helps boost their intuitive
judgement.
16
 Analytical thinking applied in strategic analysis is brain-centered and
focused. It deals with one thing and is concerned with time. It is linear and
inclined toward the abstract. It efficiently works in a condition with sufficient
time, relative stability, and established criteria for analysis such as rules. It
comes in handy when an explanation is needed. The process can be taught
and learned in the classroom.

Intuitive thinking, on the other hand, possesses characteristics which

mostly run in contrast to analytical thinking. It is heart-centered, unfocused,
and is not time-bound. It views many things simultaneously, is nonlinear, and
is inclined toward the concrete and the real. It efficiently works in dynamic
conditions, under time pressure, and is instantaneous. It works well when the
observer has gained experience in a particular situation and he is ready to act
on hunches and feeling, especially when an explanation is not needed.

According to science, intuitive thinking happens in a region of our brain

close to the pineal gland. In other words, it lines up with the middle of your
forehead, between your eyebrows. You can’t use intuitive thinking whenever
you want, though. It only shows up in “moments of inspiration”. Plus, it really
works. It’s what some people call doctors’ “clinical eye” or being a “visionary”.

The following are some well-known people of intuition

(Timeforchange.org):
✓ Albert Einstein (Theoretical physicist who is widely considered one of
the greatest physicists of all time; best known for the theory of
relativity, Nobel prize in Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric
effect and” for his services to Theoretical Physics”):
• The only real valuable thing is intuition.
• There is no logical way to the discovery of these elemental laws. There
is only one way of intuition, which is helped by a feeling for the order
lying behind the appearance.
✓ Alexis Carrel (French surgeon, biologist, and eugenicist; Nobel prize
in Physiology or Medicine):
• All great men are gifted with intuition. They know without reasoning
or analysis what they need to know.
• Intuition comes very close to clairvoyance; it appears to be the
extrasensory perception of reality.
✓ Lao Tzu (ancient Chinese philosopher):
• The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from harm until
the end of your days.
✓ Anne Wilsom Schaef (writer and lecturer):
• Trusting our intuition often saves us from disaster

17
The 4 Types of Intuitive Thinking
1. Emotional intuitive thinking. This has to do with your ability to
immediately pick up on other people’s personality traits or emotional
states. You can see who they are, or how they are, without them having
to say anything.
2. Mental intuitive thinking. This is about finding an immediate answer
to a problem, without analyzing it. It’s very common in people with jobs
that require quick decisions, like firefighters or bomb technicians.
3. Psychic intuitive thinking. This means having the ability to choose
the best path to overcome a personal difficulty, without putting much
mental effort into it. It also means being able to pick up on social and
work-related dynamics.
4. Spiritual intuitive thinking. This has to do with states of
enlightenment” or “revelations”. They’re more of an experience than a
fact. Buddhists talk about this kind of intuition more than anyone else,
which has given it a mystical quality.

 Let Us Remember

Things to Remember!

Intuitive thinking is basically the kind of thinking that helps you

understand reality in the moment, without logic or analysis. There’s no
language involved in it, either. It’s entirely about signs and sensations. Most
of the time, it goes against whatever we might think of as “rational”.

Intuitive thinking is “quick and ready insight” (Webster’s New Collegiate

Dictionary). Intuitive decision making is for more than using common sense
because it involves additional sensors to perceive and get aware of the
information from outside. sometimes, it is referred to as gut feeling, sixth
sense, inner sense, instinct, inner voice, spiritual guide, etc.
