I also rely heavily on intuition and sometimes my intuitive feeling is
that my intuition is not working depending on the circumstances. It is
this sensitivity to the current reaction to such intuition that I think
makes it effective. Nothing worse than a consultant/facilitator who
"thinks" they know the answer when they did not perceive all the nuances
of the question based on the feeling of their current audience.
