What if your strongest strategic signal feels like your weakest hunch?
In this rich conversation, Dave Schoof sits down with Maurice Jenkins—host of The Intuitive Leader™ Podcast and an expert in psychological safety and high-performing teams—to explore the vital yet often overlooked role of intuition in leadership.
Maurice shares his journey from high-performing sales strategist to intuitive leadership coach, including the pivotal moment at age 12 when he first recognized consciousness while lying on his parents' lawn.
Together, Dave and Maurice unpack:
The Four Distinct Types of Intuition
• Body intuition: holistic knowing that registers throughout your system
• Gut intuition: the unmistakable "flare-up" that signals when something's off
• Heart intuition: felt knowing in the chest area
• Intuitive mind: insights that arise through reflective practices
Practical Applications• Maurice's 20-year morning ritual using pen and paper to access intuitive mind• The real-world cost of ignoring gut instincts in hiring and strategy• How to communicate intuitive knowing in data-driven environments• Why "reading the room" is a trainable skill, not a mystical gift
