问题    What is so special about intuitive talent? Extensive research on brain skills indicates that those who score as highly intuitively on such test instruments as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator tend to be the most innovative in strategic planning and decisionmaking. They tend to be more insightful and better at finding new ways of doing things. In business, they are the people who can sense whether a new product idea will "fly" in the marketplace. They are the people who will generate ingenious new solutions to old problems that may have festered for years. These are the executives that all organizations would love to find.
   But, surprisingly, organizations often thwart, block, or drive out this talent--the very talent they require for their future survival! At the very least, most organizations lack well- established human-capital programs designed to search for and consciously use their employees’ intuitive talent in the strategic-planning process. As a result, this talent is either not used, suppressed, or lost altogether.
   Typically, highly intuitive managers work in an organizational climate that is the opposite of that which would enable them to flourish and to readily use their skills for strategic decisionmaking. This climate can be characterized as follows: New ideas are not readily encouraged. Higher managers choose others who think much as they do for support staff. Unconventional approaches to problemsolving encounter enormous resistance. Before long, the intuitive executive begins to emotionally withdraw, slowly but surely reducing his or her input and often leaving the organization altogether.
   To achieve higher productivity in the strategic-planning and decisionmaking process, clearly what is needed is an organizational climate in which intuitive brain skills and styles can flourish and be integrated with more-traditional management techniques. The organization’s leadership must have a special sensitivity to the value of intuitive input in strategic decisionmaking and understand how to create an environment in which the use of intuition will grow, integrating it into the mainstream of the organization’s strategic-planning process.
An executive might leave the organization because ______.
选项 A、he is hurt
B、he is fired
C、his intuitive talent is not used
D、he earns too little
答案C
解析 管理人员可能会离开他的机构，因为他的天才没有受到重用。根据第三段后半段，新思想很难受到鼓励，高层管理人员选那些跟他们想法一样的人作为帮手，不同凡响的、解决问题的办法遭到极大的反对。不久，有敏锐洞察力的管理人员开始在思想上缓慢地打退堂鼓，一定会减少自己的投入，往往彻底地离开自己的机构。
