I had no idea what to expect, but I felt a clear yes inside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 20, I chose a university. The university and the course were brand new. I knew nothing about it. But inside I knew &#8211; this is the right place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 24 my first job &#8211; moving to Switzerland, no idea about consulting, nobody I knew &#8211; but I heard a yes inside and I followed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the middle of my career I took over a product job, not knowing much about it. The team delivered before official launch. We saw the opportunity and we felt a yes &#8211; we trusted it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I see this in the leaders I work with today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They listen, they sense \u2013 and they decide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They feel: this is the way. Or it is not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They trust themselves. And they jump. They know they can swim.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI can support you with data. Create scenarios. Deliver analysis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you are the one who decides. It is only you who can hear a subtle, quiet yes in your body. It takes courage to hear and to follow it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is when leadership becomes less about processing more and more about trusting what you already sense.
