Abstract

This article outlines the principal advances in the scientific study of intuition that have a bearing on organizational behaviour and related sub-fields of the management and organization sciences. Following major developments in the social neurosciences, personality, and individual differences, especially dual-process conceptions of human cognition, the notion of intuition has moved from the fringes of academic respectability to the centre ground in the analysis of organizational decision processes.
