Despite the somewhat magical-sounding name (who wants or dares to trust their gut in this age of data?), this is a solid and original book with a good methodology inside it.
The essential point it makes is that we all possess useful intuition - most commonly known to many as the source of those exceedingly clear shower thoughts - but its voice in the modern world is drowned out by both external and internal stimuli and noise. Some examples of the external stimuli would be all the screens, emails and newsfeeds vying for your brainspace; the internal noise includes, for example, your "inner critic" - those rational-sounding thought loops that swoop in to beat down any bold idea you have before you even voice it.
The book presents a step-by-step guide for silencing the external stimuli, then recognizing and stilling the internal noise, and then using that silence for finding the intuitive answers to your questions.
It's a useful skill to have, as the alternative - a nice long shower during an all-hands with your boss - is rather impractical.
I'm taking off a star because I found the book, despite how short it is, to occasionally be a bit of a slog. It's just an editing issue, really: each chapter has good insight and is worth reading, but the writing occasionally just... drags for a page or two. Not a deal-breaker, but be aware you'll need to skip some bits, or persevere.

I found this to be an excellent book with practical ways to develop and use your intuition in your career and business.
I just finished reading it and thought, "Wow, why hasn't anyone written a book like this before now." Reading this earlier in my life would have saved me so much wasted time, energy, and money on poor decisions that I had a bad feeling about but pushed forward with anyways.
I'm a entrepreneur and small business owner and I found this book to be a perfect blend of theory and actionable strategies. It was also exciting to read the case studies and business examples throughout. I now feel more connected to my intuition and excited to use the framework in the book to deepen my ability to listen to my gut and follow it.
