Intuition and Risk Management
According to Hillson (2007), we should combine intuition with a morerational approach, to get the best of both worlds. This involves the following:* Listen - Use intuition to validate the outputs of our decision-making andrisk processes.* Learn - Seek to capture the embedded knowledge of experts, and make itavailable for others.* Grow - Develop our own intuitive skills through practice and feedback.
Wikipedia (2010) defines that, Intuition is the knowledge gained by theuse of faculty (power, ability) of knowing or sensing (through eightsenses); a perceptive insight, it may also be known as guidance andcommunication for the human beings by the creator. On the other hand,
business risk management is the identification, assessment, andprioritization of risks in business.

Douglas (2009) defines, Risk management is theidentification, assessment, and prioritization of risks
followed by coordinated and economical application ofresources to minimize, monitor, and control the
probability and/or impact of unfortunate events.Riskscan come from uncertainty in financial markets,
project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents,natural causes and disasters as well as deliberateattacks from an adversary.

The Case Study researches reveal;* Masaru Ibuka, Founder and chairman of
Japan's Sony Corp was asked in an interview,
"What is the secret of your success?" He said hehad a ritual. Preceding a business decision, hewould drink herbal tea. Before he drank, heasked himself, "Should I make this deal ornot?" If the tea gave him indigestion, he
wouldn't make the deal. "I trust my gut, and Iknow how it works," he said. "My mind is notthat smart, but my body is."

* Doug Greene, Chairman of New HopeCommunications acknowledge, "If I don't feelgood in my stomach about a decision, I don'tcare if the numbers say we're going to make abillion dollars. That's how important intuition
is to me. It's an actual feeling either way. Whenit doesn't feel good, it's just like a stomachacheor a nervous stomach and when a decision feelsright, it's like a great meal."

In order to determine the relationship between intuition styles and effective
business risk management we took a sample of243 male and 77 female decisionmaking personnel within the firms of Korangi Association of Trade andIndustry(KATI),which represents more than 2500 industrial, commercial andservice units in Karachi. The good response rate was seen, as we approached 410personnel and in turn received 320 responses. The survey method was used tosolicit information from the respondents, which is popular in an organizationalsetting, and according to Frey, Botan, Friedman and Kreps (1991), it enables theresearcher to learn about the characteristics of a large population and to gatherinformation from respondents representing a specific population about their
values, decision making, attitudes, behavior patterns and beliefs.
Each personnel was required to fill up the following questionnaires;1. Intuition Questionnaire by Rosemarie Anderson (2007) at

2. Business Risk Management Questionnaire developed by Sullivan and Streater(1999)http://www.audit.nsw.gov.au/publications/questionnaires/RiskSurveyInstrument.pdf

Each respondent was required to fill up the Intuition Questionnaire
developed by Rosemarie Anderson (2007). This questionnaire is used to helpan individual to identify the strength of their five Intuitive Styles, on a Likert-scale (with the scoring of never=1, seldom=3 and always=5), from which peoplecan identify and refine any one as their own preferred style and develop othersto enhance their current intuitive skills for themselves in personal andprofessional areas. The intuitive styles are; i) symbolic and imaginal processes,
ii) direct and psychic experiences, iii) sensory and somatic modes,iv) empathic identification, andv) through your wounds.
The Business Risk Management Questionnaire developed by Sullivan andStreater (1999) is divided into the following segments: a) organizational
culture and support, b) risk management policy, c) organizational objectives,d) risk identification, e) risk analysis, evaluation and treatment, f) riskmonitoring and review & g) effective risk management. Questions focus onhow the company identifies and communicates about risk, utilizes effectiveprocesses to manage risks across the enterprise, and supports thoseprocesses with a business risk management infrastructure.

Critical values for the levels of intuition on Anderson questionnaire are;Less use of intuition = scores from 30 70
Average use of intuition = scores from 71 110Higher use of intuition = scores from 111 150
Critical values for the levels of effective business risk management onSullivan and Streater questionnaire are;
Ineffective business risk management = scores from 65 150
Average business risk management = scores from 151 230Effective business risk management = scores from 231 315
Targeting of the participants was based on the following formula:H = N..(1) n = __N____
1+N (e)2
Where n is the sample size, N is the population size and e is the level ofprecision with a 95% confidence level and a position of (+ 5 percent) i.e. P =
.05n = 2500________ = 320 participants
