Understanding KTO12LRM Local Networks STRATEGIC ANALYSIS AND INTUITIVE THINKING PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: The learner draws a color-coded map of the networks of power relations (political, economic, cultural, and kinship ties) within a particular community. KTO12LRM MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY: Explain strategic analysis and intuitive thinking. HUMSS_MCT12- Ic-e-2 KTO12LRM Strategic Analysis and Intuitive Thinking 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. KTO12LRM Strategic Analysis 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. KTO12LRM Strategic Analysis 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. KTO12LRM Intuitive Thinking 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.

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 countries. The six key elements are abilities to anticipate, challenge, decide, interpret, learn, and align. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM ELEMENTS OF STRATEGIC THINKING 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. KTO12LRM Strategic Analysis 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 situations that prevent you from focusing on your studies, and other factors that can help you improve your skills. Intuitive Thinking 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 KTO12LRM Intuitive Thinking Intuitive thinkers do certain things which other do not. Carolyn Gregorie (2014), senior writer of The Huffington Post provided the 6 Things Highly Intuitive People Do Differently. The following activities are as follows: KTO12LRM 6 Things Highly Intuitive People Do Differently 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. KTO12LRM 6 Things Highly Intuitive People Do Differently 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. KTO12LRM 6 Things Highly Intuitive People Do Differently 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. KTO12LRM Analytical thinking 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. KTO12LRM Intuitive Thinking Intuitive thinking, on the other hand, possesses characteristics which mostly run in contrast to analytical thinking. It is heart-centered, unfocused, and is not timebound. It view 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.
