Hat tip to two thinking styles ๐ŸŽฉ

  • Scientific Thinking: ๐Ÿ‘ฉ‍๐Ÿ”ฌ This is like using a recipe when baking. Managers will gather evidence, analyze it, and follow it to make decisions. No chocolate chips are added to an apple pie without solid reasons!
  • Intuitive Thinking: ๐Ÿ”ฎ Ever baked cookies without a recipe? That's intuitive thinking. Managers rely on their gut feelings, hunches, or experiences, even if the evidence points elsewhere. Basically, they sprinkle in chocolate chips just because it feels right

  • For example: If a coffee shop ๐Ÿต finds through data that 80% of customers want almond milk options, they might start offering it (scientific). But if the manager has a hunch that oat milk will be the next big thing, they might introduce it too, even without clear data (intuitive).
